Re: pvscan does not detect lvm1 exported volume group

Thanks Luca,

I was not aware that md was ever used on the system (that is what you get for not configuring things yourself). I disabled md_component_detection and all was fine.

Thanks!

The relevant output of pvscan -vvvv is copied below. The volume group consists of /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdc1. Apparently, pvscan sees some kind of md raid information on /dev/sdb1 and decides to skip it?

I don't know why there is a md superblock at the end of sdb1 and sdc1,
maybe you used to mirror or stripe them before, then forgot to remove
the superblock when you quit md.
anyway you can use mdadm to examine and remove the superblock from sdb1
and sdc1.
In alternative you can disable md_component_detection in
/etc/lvm/lvm.conf (if you will never use lvm over md anymore, that is)
