No problem. I was out of town last weekend, and I didn't have a chance to try to fix the problem yet. :-) > What I am seeing is a very common issue with your type of installation > -- you need to modify your lvm.conf file to "hide" the two components of > the md0 "drive" from vgscan. Cool. I changed the filter to filter = [ "r|/dev/cdrom|", "r|/dev/hde1|", "r|/dev/hdeg|" ] Now, I no longer have the "Found duplicate PV 7LOs90S2Ff8W7Tq8ZGRsT41lphbExsLh: using /dev/hdg1 not /dev/hde1" error message. I think that my best bet now might be to attempt rebuilding the RAID device /dev/hde1. # pvscan No matching physical volumes found # lvscan No volume groups found lvmdiskscan -v /dev/md0 [ 111.79 GB] /dev/hda1 [ 101.94 MB] /dev/hdc1 [ 5.59 GB] /dev/hda2 [ 7.71 GB] /dev/hdc2 [ 2.28 GB] /dev/hda5 [ 37.26 GB] /dev/hda6 [ 37.26 GB] 0 disks 7 partitions 0 LVM physical volume whole disks 0 LVM physical volumes > That should help your vgscan issues.

Now I've just got to get past that "scans successfully" step. :-) > but LVM _is_ starting at boot, correct? Probably. When investigating, I ran /etc/init.d/lvm restart I'm now getting # /etc/init.d/lvm restart Shutting down LVM Volume Groups... No volume groups found Setting up LVM Volume Groups... Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
