I have installed Kernel 2.2.18 and lvm 0.9. All things have been fine till this morning. I have increased a logical volume (and the reiserfs which resides on that volume) from 1000M to 2000M (not 2GB). Some time later I had to reboot the machine (because I want to attach some devices to the SCSI bus). After the reboot vgscan does NOT find my VG any longer. It only says something like "no voulme group found". If I call pvscan it tells me that it found two physical disks (thats ok). But both PVs are in an unknown VG. I should call vgscan (but see obove :-) Then I called pvdata to find out something out about whats going wrong here. pvdata -a /dev/sda1 ; pvdata -a /dev/sda2 ; are working fine , they also tell me that these PVs are members of sysvg. Does anybody have an idear how to get vgscan to read this info? pvdata finds members of a VG but vgscan does not :-((. I hope someone can help me!! (Yes I do have backup data, but I want to sleep well, if there are so many lvm installations out in the world). Best regards, Fabian Herschel
