Hi ! I have the following problem : For backup purposes, i take SAN-Snapshot Copies of my Linux machine. I deploy my new machines from those copies, too. This has the effect, that a clone of a machine has the exact same disk the original has including PV UUID, VG name, VG UUID, LV name and lv uuid. I found out that i can change the PV UUID with pvchange -u and the VG name with vgrename , but is there a way to change the UUID's of the VG and the LV's ? I need it, because i mount all those snapshots on a backup-server and this doesn't work because of the same UUIDs.
Look for "Hardware snapshots and LVM2?" and "Altering a Physical Volume's UUID" in the list archives. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
