Reply-To: LVM general discussion and development List-Id: LVM general discussion and development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format="flowed" To: linux-lvm@redhat.com I forgot to run export on my volume group before disconnecting it from my system. Is there any way to mount the volume group without access to the original machine? If I could get the machine back up, but without this volume group attached, is there any way to get the metadata I need from some system files somewhere on the drive? Or do I have to physically bring the volume group to the machine (not possible)? Thanks, Jared
