PV is /dev/hdd no partition table exists. I did figure out the problem though. I had a symlink to /dev/hdd and I think that was causing some issues. I removed that symlink and all the PV's display properly now. My next issue is this.. fileserver:~# vgchange -a y 4474 Volume group 4474 metadata is inconsistent Volume group for uuid not found: lIoGSWjLzjHDN61mdY0yqVbilyBU9xzFSoVzKiy750swPFxT8D0ijXGNAi3FddlG 0 logical volume(s) in volume group "4474" now active :( hehe, next...
