Hello, I am running through this error in CentOS 4.3, has anyone gone through this situation? I added a disk to the VG, initialized it with pvcreate and vgextended our VG. However, it's constantly showing these messages: # vgdisplay Incorrect metadata area header checksum /var/lock/lvm/V_VG00: open failed: No space left on device Can't lock VG00: skipping which don't seem to be true at all: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VG00-LogVol00 9.0G 7.0G 1.6G 83% / /dev/sda1 99M 9.0M 85M 10% /boot /dev/mapper/VG00-LogVol01 14G 510M 13G 4% /opt/lampp/var /dev/mapper/VG00-LogVol02 977M 18M 910M 2% /tmp Not of the disks is fully used, yet I can't even write to /root # >foobar -bash: foobar: No space left on device Any idea?
