Please someone answer this, is there any solution to this problem? To
clarify:
- Disk failure
- Ran 'vgreduce --remove-missing volgrp0' (probably not such a good idea)
- /dev/volgrp0/ emtpy. 'lvdisplay' doesn't show anything.
So, can I somehow restore my logical volume? The three other physical
disks/partitions are intact.
Thanks in advance,
Thomas Novin
