Hi,

I had a volume group = with disks=20 hd{e,f,g,h,b,c,d}. But my IDE controler is dead now, and I have only = hd{e,f,g,h}=20 remaining. I'm pretty sure all the data is on the first disks (linear = mode),=20 since there wasnt much. I've tried vgreduce to remove hde{b,c,d} from = the volume=20 group, but it says that the device doesnt exist (of course, it's = unplugged).=20 I'de like to know if there's a way to reduce this VG to hd{e,f,g,h} = without=20 destroying the data.

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Sylvain
