One other question. Last time, I created /dev/md0 on /dev/hde1 and /dev/hdg1. I also created an LVM Physical Volume on /dev/md0, and a Volume Group on /dev/md0. I was planning on starting over from scratch to make sure everything is done correctly. Do I need to do anything special to get mdadm and LVM to forget about the previous configuration? I figured that I'd remove /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. I also see, for example, /etc/lvm/backup/localvg. If I plan to call the volume group localvg, do I need to remove this file? Or should I be running some sort of LVM command to make it forget about the previous physical and logical volumes? ---Tom -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/
