I can't believe what I just did, but I just accidentally removed an LV.
I have done nothing to the disk since doing this however. Is there any
hope at all at restoring it? Fortunately it has never been resized at
all so should at least be contiguous on the disk, somewhere.
Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!

Look into vgcfgrestore.

Also look at your /etc/lvm/archive/ for all archived metadata. You
should be able to use '--list' option.

This did the trick. Thanx Alasdair!
I have never had occasion to use vgcfgrestore prior to this fubar but it
worked like a charm.
Again, many, many, thanx! I owe you at least one beer. You saved a lot
of data.
