We have a new server up and running. We installed a fresh OS. Now we
find we are in need of some files on an old drive that was 3 LV's over 3
md arrays as PV's. Is it still possible to read data from this drive by
plugging it into the new server? How can we do this?
Regards,
Gerry

Perhaps it is too late to reply, but sure you can. Reconstruct md
devices (I think it is possible if you known the layout) and then do
lvscan, you should get then your lvs
