Hi, I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T61 with a second disk drive for the Ultrabay. I created one PV on the internal and external (Ultrabay) each I created a VG with these two PVs. I created a LV (LV1) that uses exclusively PV intern I created a LV (LV2) that uses both PVs in striped mode. So far everything works fine. What I would like to do is to unmount LV2 and be able to remove the external disk from the Ultrabay to replace it with a DVD drive while still be able to acess the filesystem on LV1 (which uses only space on the internal disk). I would like to do this to backup data from LV1 to DVD-RW. Is this possible with LVM? How would I go and prepare the external disk for removal? How would I reconnect if I insert the disk again. Thanks in advance!
