Subject: [linux-lvm] Seem to be in trouble
Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2005 11:37:58 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42124F96.2090607@mindstorm.com> (raw)

So I have been converting my Suse 9.1 fileserver to use lvm2. (2.6.4)
Seems I have have run into trouble and not sure what to do to get out of it.

All of my physical volumes are Raid 1 mirros.  (/dev/md0, /dev/md1)

I was just converting /dev/md1 to a PV.
I was then moving all of the PE's in /dev/md0 to /dev/md1.
Just about the point that it finished, the machine hung. 

I could log in, but then just about everything I could do with the 
filessystem would cause a process to hang.
So after about 10 minutes, I rebooted the machine. 
Then I got a whole bunch of errors and the fsck was being run on all  
the filesystems.
Then I got an oops.  So I rebooted without those disks and upgraded the 
kernel to 2.6.10.

Things seem to be mostly ok now except:
One of my logical volumes is messed up.
I have a new logical volume called /dev/system/pvmove0 which is huge.
I don't want to delete it in case I can use it to recover.

When I run pvmove, it detects the move in progress, but says there are 
problems:
# pvmove
Number of segments in active LV pvmove0 does not match metadata
Number of segments in active LV pvmove0 does not match metadata
ABORTING: Mirror percentage check failed.

Any ideas on what to do now?
Is there anyway to recover?

Nicholas
