Hi PPL, little question. Supposing i have 1 HD with 2 pvs (hda1 and hda3) in VG named VG01 and LV named lv01 working successfully in MACHINE1. root@solid:/etc/lvmconf# lvscan lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/vg01/lv01" [704 MB] lvscan -- 1 logical volumes with 704 MB total in 1 volume group lvscan -- 1 active logical volumes root@solid:/etc/lvmconf# pvscan pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/hda1" of VG "vg01" [1.41 GB / 1.41 GB free] pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/hda3" of VG "vg01" [1.41 GB / 736 MB free] pvscan -- total: 2 [2.91 GB] / in use: 2 [2.91 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0] Supposing again: MACHINE1 is down and I need to put VG above in another server, named MACHINE2. I Will remove HD from MACHINE1 and put in MACHINE2. What the nexts steps i will have to follow to make VG be recognized by MACHINE2 exactly how was in MACHINE1 without lose data? regards,
