Hello,

I'm having trouble importing my VG after an export.

The system that exported the group was Redhat 7.3, I'm trying to import
on Redhat 8.0; Logical Volume Manager 1.0.3
Heinz Mauelshagen, Sistina Software  19/02/2002 (IOP 10)

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the metadata so I can't try
vgcfgrestore. Also, note that I've modified the first 512 bytes of
/dev/hdg1 with a hex editor in an effort to fix this problem. It seems
to have helped (pvscan /dev/hdg1 now works) but I still cann't import.

Any help and/or pointers to technical documentation beyond the howto
would be greatly appreciated.

-Emmanuel

The VG consists of
/dev/hdg1 /dev/hde /dev/hdc1 and /dev/hdb1 (/dev/hda4 is not part of
group). Here's the summary after lvmdiskscan:

lvmdiskscan -- reading all disks / partitions (this may take a while...)
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdg1  [  76.33 GB] Primary  LVM partition [0x8E]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hde   [  93.16 GB] free whole disk
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdc1  [  16.80 GB] Primary  LVM partition [0x8E]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hda1  [  47.03 MB] Primary  LINUX native partition 
[0x83]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hda2  [   4.88 GB] Primary  LINUX native partition 
[0x83]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hda3  [ 251.02 MB] Primary  LINUX swap partition [0x82]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hda4  [  13.91 GB] Primary  LVM partition [0x8E]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdb1  [  38.16 GB] Primary  LVM partition [0x8E]

vgscan appears to run correctly:

But vgimport fails:
vgimport storage /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hde

vgimport storage /dev/hde /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1

Could you try to re-export it? just curious..but why did you export it
in the first place? Were you physically moving it, or just re-installing
RH?

I hadn't thought of re-exporting; I'll have to see what happens on a 
test machine.

I don't actually physically move anything. I exported because I wanted a 
fresh RH install (not an upgrade). I figured once the install was 
completed, I could import and be on my way. Unfortunately, I backed up 
/etc to one of the LVs ...smart thinking, I know :(

Emmanuel,

the error tells you, that the physical extend count is wrong in the
volume group which might be caused by your hexediting.
What excatly did you do?

That vgimport fails might be caused by out-of-sequence physical volume
number. LVM1 CVS (Branch: LVM_BRANCH_1-0) contains a fix for that which
will be in LVM 1.0.6 as well.
You can display the PV numbers with
"pvdata -P/dev/hdg1 /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hde".

But don't change anything _before_ we checked the impact of your first hexedits!
     
Regards,
Heinz    -- The LVM Guy --

Heinz,

What you're saying makes sense, I changed the Physical Volume Numbers
      from    to   matching the order with the uuid order
hdg1 #2      3
hdc1 #3      2
hdb1 #4      1
hde  #5      4

After that, vgimport stopped complaining about the wrong number of volumes.

Summary of my hexedits:
(execept for renumbering PV#s, all were on hdg1 only)

I noticed that there was a bunch of garbage in the first 512 bytes of 
/dev/hdg1 so I used the other Physical Volumes as references and 
"cleaned up the data".

The first 4 bytes (in hex) were:
88 77 AA 55

I changed them to:
48 4D 01 00

The uuid listed was:
LsbEp5-ogHi-xcK5-NUnA-PItC-OmZ{-KSu3zg

I changed it to (based on what the other volumes were reporting)
LrbEp4-ofHi-xbK4-NTnA-PHtC-OmZz-KSu3zg

The VG name was:
\x01my_mvmPW_EXQ

I changed it to:
my_lvmPV_EXP

The system id was:
PW_EXQcaruman/emco.eyodos/osg1034723755

I changed it to:
PV_EXPcartman.emco.dyndns.org1034722745

In addition to this, all of the padded space was filled with
alternating 01 00 01 00 01 00 ... etc. This was unlike the other
volumes, filled in with zeros only.


Thank you for your time,

Emmanuel

I've taken a look at the physical extent count and hde, hdb1, hdc1 agree 
on what it should be. During my hexediting, I changed hdg1 to match the 
other three. Is there a way that I can calculate or scan the true PE 
count so I can compare it to the number stored at the top of the PVs?

Also, in case you missed it, I listed the other changes that I made via 
hexediting a couple of postings back.

I'm too, along with a recent poster, am interested implementation 
documentation. Specifically, at what offset does lvm end and the actual 
filesystem and data begin?

Thank you,
Emmanuel

Emanuel,

IIRC from your other mail, you had the out-of-sequence number problem fixed
with your PV numbers (recent LVM1 CVS contains a fix for this already) and
have your VG back, right?

"pvdata -PP" gives you offset onfo such as:

<SNIP>
pv_on_disk.base          0
pv_on_disk.size          1024
vg_on_disk.base          1024
vg_on_disk.size          5120
pv_uuidlist_on_disk.base 6144
pv_uuidlist_on_disk.size 32896
lv_on_disk.base          39040
lv_on_disk.size          10824
pe_on_disk.base          53248
pe_on_disk.size          4259840

The definitions of the various structures and tables are in lvm.h (pv_disk_t,
vg_disk_t etc.).

Heinz    -- The LVM Guy --

* [linux-lvm] vgimport problem

sorry, I just got the next problem, hopefully not that stupid again :-)

I exported a VG of three PV's last week.
When I now try to import them again, I get:

-> vgimport data3 /dev/hdc /dev/hdd2 /dev/hdb
vgimport -- ERROR: wrong number of physical volumes to import volume 
group "data3"

I looked into each PV by pvdata and everything seems OK.
The UUIDs are OK and there are exactly 3 ones listed.
I can't get any hint about any missing PV. Running vgimport -v
does not report any additional errors, too.

any advice?

Dieter.

We fixed a vgimport bug with out-of-sequence PV numbers in LVM 1.0.6.

If pvdata shows you, that your PVs are not sequentially numbered (i.e.  1,3,4), you probably want to try 1.0.6.
