Long ago, Nostradamus foresaw that on 04/26/2014 02:47 PM, L.M.J would write: > > I presume I still have data on my broken RAID5. > > I did a pvcreate --restorefile and vgcfgrestore. Did you restore the raid 5, taking out the new drive, and add00ing it back in properly? I can't take the time right now to give you a step by step. The big warning on what you did wasn't a joke. You should get help from md driver people. You do not have an LVM problem. > I can see now my 2 LVM, but my EXT4 filesystem are empty, df reports some realist disk usage, fsck (Read only) find ? tons of errors. Is there a way to recover my data on the EXT4 FS ? Le Fri, 18 Apr 2014 23:14:17 +0200, "L.M.J" None of that is relevant until you restore your raid 5. Your problem was that you told md that your new blank drive was good, in-sync data. Which is obviously isn't. You need to degrade your raid back to the one missing drive. Then add the new drive normally - NOT using that experts only shortcut with the big warning, which you used incorrectly. _______________________________________________ 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/
