Example: 1. Create 2 PVs. Let's say /dev/sda and /dev/sdb 2. Create a VG with PV /dev/sda named data 3. Create a LV on VG data named origin 4. Extend VG data with PV /dev/sdb 5. Create a snapshot LV of LV origin, in VG data, on PV /dev/sdb, named snap 6. Remove /dev/sdb physically from the system (or disable in BIOS) 7. Reboot 8. Use vgreduce --removemissing to get VG data up again LV origin is gone and can only be brought back from backup with vgcfgrestore. lvm 2.02.28 dev-mapper 1.02.22-r1 kernel 2.6.22-r8 -- Best regards, Hannes Dorbath _______________________________________________ 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/
