Hi,
The following stupid mistake was made :( A pv, vg and lv were
created, and then the documentation was misread, and a partition was
created inside the lv. Said partition mounted fine, and allowed fs
creation along with large amounts of data to be copied. Partition was
accessible via /dev/vg1/lv1p1.
Server has been rebooted, and now only /dev/vg1/lv1 is shown. parted
can open the lv and shows 1 partition inside, but doesn't understand
ext3 volumes, so can't copy the partition to another disk. tune2fs
can't see /dev/vg1/lv1p1, or I'd use that to change the fs type to ext2.
Is there a way to undo the stupid mistake and get at the partition
inside the logical volume? That is to say, mount the partition, copy
the data out and then create the filesystem correctly. Is there a way
to force /dev/vg1/lv1p1 to show up again?
Thanks in advance for helping :)
