I am getting warning message "Incorrect metadata area header checksum" 
LVM How to ask for a file on /etc/lvm/archive,  I don't have any 
VolumeGroupName_XXXXX.vg file;  seems like my system works fine, but I 
have the concern about this warning message. Do any of you have some 
idea how to fix this problem? Following are some outputs to fdisk and 
LVM commands
