My initial guess is that it doesn't use the volume label. I know that you can change device numbers, and device names and lvm will still find it.
However, don't take my word for it. i've screwed up before. -----Original Message----- From: Uriel Carrasquilla [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2005 5:00 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: risk if I relabel an LVM DASD Volume Question: would my volume-group and logical-volume (LVM) be in trouble if I re-label one or more of the physical volumes allocated to the lv? I forgot to label the volumes when I created them and my zOS guy is getting them in his reports (bad label). We use zOS DF/DSS for backups so I am very much forced into having the correct label. I was thinking to IPL SLES-9 without the LVM's in /etc/fstab. That way I could do the "fdasd -l xxx". My other option is to backup the data, delete the LV-group/volume. Re-label. Then put it back. A lot of work. any suggestions are welcome, except killing the zOS guy.
