Hi all, I have been looking everywhere for a good answer to this issue, with no success (including searching this list's archives); I hope that coming directly to the source will help. I made a mistake in removing physical media from a hot-swap drive bay before telling LVM I was going to remove it. I don't actually care about the data on those disks at all--it was an old test volume that I hadn't even had mounted for over a year. But now, when I do any lvm commands, I get an error like so: # pvdisplay /dev/testVG/testLV: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error and an error like this in the logs: scsi 1:0:2:0: rejecting I/O to dead device What would be the cleanest, most official way to clear this error? I have read a lot about vgreduce --removemissing, which seems like it should work, but I am (perhaps overly) paranoid about messing up other existing and currently working LVM volumes. If you need any other information, please let me know, either on or off list. Thanks! --keith -- kkeller@wombat.san-francisco.ca.us
