Sorry for the previous html post. After sending the previous email I found an metadata backup file created after a vgdisplay. I'm posting it here to help the understanding of my lvs situation. http://dpaste.com/hold/97507/ Is secure to use this file to restore the metadata of the sda3? _______________________________________________ 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/
