I don't understand the other SMART failures, since in what you've included, there's no duplicate of the line below > Jan 21 11:43:17 porter2 kernel: EXT3-fs error (device sdg1): for the other drives. <snip> Do you have a current snapshot? I *think* you're going to have to quiesce the LVM and swap that drive (MAKE SURE you've got the correct one - use lshw or smartctl to find the s/n of each, before you pull the drive. I did a quick google on replacing failed LVM drive, and found <http://ds9a.nl/lvm-howto/HOWTO/cvs/lvm-howto/output/lvm-howto-6.html> Hope that helps. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
