Hello All,
I have two PV's with Thin Volumes within them.
Im not able to mount or activate either after trying to
vgcfgrestore one of them.
PV,VG and LV display/scan all show volumes
but cant activate them or mount them.
I ran the following command to restore the thin volume
from the metadata file in /etc/lvm/archive.
vgcfgrestore --force -f
/etc/lvm/archive/vg_sfim_00640-658506285.vg vg_sfim
Scan commands:
[root@erbium ~]# pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda2 vg_erbium lvm2 a-- 59.51g 0
/dev/sdb vg_sfim lvm2 a-- 29.80t 0

cant seam to activate them when i do a vgchange.
Get the following output:
[root@erbium ~]# vgchange -ay
Check of pool vg_fmrif/thinpool failed (status:1). Manual repair required!
0 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_fmrif" now active
Thin pool transaction_id is 649, while expected 647.
0 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_sfim" now active
3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_erbium" now active
Also dmsetup command used to show me the volumes in question,
however after reboot it does not

Try passing the -K flag with vgchange.
# vgchange -Kay

You can't "undo" changes to a thin pool like that.
Because of the way the data is stored changes to thin devices generally
cannot be reversed.
What change were you trying to revert?
