I made a little mistake a few months ago when I added a disk to my VG: ----- s n i p ----- celia:~# pvdisplay | egrep 'PV Name|Allocatable' PV Name /dev/md0 Allocatable yes (but full) PV Name /dev/hdc Allocatable yes (but full) PV Name /dev/sdd1 Allocatable yes (but full) PV Name /dev/md2 Allocatable yes (but full) PV Name /dev/md3 Allocatable yes ----- s n i p ----- What id like to do is move all data from sdd1 (372Gb) to the new md3 (just added - empty 465Gb) and then remove sdd1 and create it as md1 and move the data back. But I'm afraid of holes in the FS (XFS)... Also, hdc is just a 80Gb disk which I forgot to remove when I added sdd1 (I had a 80Gb disk laying around and not enough money) so I'd like to remove it completely (move the physical data to some other PV - md3 because of free space on that). Any advice in which procedure I should use to accomplish this? -- arrangements Uzi SDI Waco, Texas Saddam Hussein Noriega KGB security tritium colonel FSF NORAD FBI Qaddafi domestic disruption [See http://www.echelonwatch.org/ for more about this] http://www.theregister.co.uk/2001/09/06/eu_releases_echelon_spying_report/ http://www.aclu.org/safefree/nsaspying/23989res20060131.html#echelon _______________________________________________ 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/
