I had a san snapshot attached to a server with a volume
group on it. I deactivated the snapshot, but the volume group node still
exists at /dev/vgname. I’ve tried pvscan and vgmknodes to try and get rid of
it, but they complain about not being able to read /dev/sdh1 and the node
remains. This is a problem because it will not let me create a new volume
group with that same name, and it must have the same name because it is part of
a script. I’m sure a reboot would get rid of it, but this is a
24/7 server and any downtime is a huge ordeal. If anyone knows how to force
the removal of the volume group without rebooting, it would be a big help. Thanks, James Dinkel |
