Subject: [linux-lvm] vgimport problem
Date: Wed Oct 23 17:27:01 2002 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DB72212.3030407@emco.dyndns.org> (raw)
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]
...
--- List of logical volumes ---
pvdata -- logical volume "/dev/my_lvm/testlv" at offset 0
pvdata -- logical volume struct at offset 1 is empty
pvdata -- logical volume "/dev/my_lvm/music" at offset 2
pvdata -- logical volume "/dev/my_lvm/home" at offset 3
vgscan appears to run correctly:
vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- found exported volume group "my_lvmPV_EXP"
vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created
vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your

But vgimport fails:
