I was in the process of doing a pvmove from /dev/md3 to a new, blank /dev/md1 when /dev/md1 failed due to operator stupidity.I tried doing a pvmove abort, but it complains about a missing device. It suggests doing a vgreduce --removemissing but that refuses to proceed without a --force because pvmove has placed data onto the broken and missing /dev/md1.So theoretically all my data should still be available on /dev/md3. Any hints on how to proceed?
I solved the problem. I did a vgcfgdump, carefully edited the resulting file, and used vgcfgrestore to bring things back to life.
cheers,
Bryan
