I've had a simple implementation of LVM running on two 10gig harddrives.. Everything was working fine until one day a co-worker decided he wanted to run `mkfs.ext2 /dev/hdb` Needless to say, the VG was screwed and I couldn't get any data out. My question is that I'm wondering if there is any way I can salvage the other PV and alteast get SOME data out. Or, is there any way that I can fix/restore the formatted drive? For some background info, I had one VG, two PVs, and one LV with ext2 running on it. I *believe* I had it configured to concatinate the data, but im not 100% if it was setup in stripe mode. I'm running LVM 1.0.0-3 (debian/testing) Sorry if this question has been asked before, I tried searching through the mailing-list/howto for an answer but found nothing useful. Thanks in advance :) --=20 Adam McDaniel Array Networks Calgary, AB, Canada --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9YUWnIHy9fg7fMMMRAn8qAJ0Wj5167TEFpambCxbjhNlhGN3m9QCdGG0L 3UfuT6IXpqfT2uuvvIj26nE= =wXzI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3--
