If my machines crash often enough that I am regularly juggling disks I consider this a problem beyond the scope of LVM (unless they're crashing in LVM). Anytime I *have* had to move LVM setups to other machines I have had no issues. I'm confused why you continually compare LVM to various filesystems when it isn't a filesystem. It has different challenges and use cases. > I consider that a good disk system should allow to get back data if > disk is good working.

If you could go into more detail regarding incidents where you have lost data on otherwise working disks then perhaps you could get more help. --Ua8iSVM1QPEF/ktp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDqoGvIJm2TL8VSQsRAuKtAKC5f7MziNFfr4JbO+H0GVwjexbKbQCfYvyD MsCT0lcxqpLsVrl6JKnej+8= =zNyS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Ua8iSVM1QPEF/ktp--
