|
|
Hi,
I had strange situation. I've powered down the PC. When I've stared it up, bios won't see one of the 3 TB HD. I haven't realised that so LVM couldn't find 1 HD.
I'm not sure why bios didn't see the HD, so I've moved the cables around etc and go the HD online.
Now LVM can see everyting but it's complaining:
I have a problem with ftp and TLS . . . for some reason when the TLS is running i can log in but client won't show folders, fails to fully connect
I can mount the drive with--partial and I can see all the data is there. How do I go about this problem? Almost all the HD are full so I can't move the data around . ..
EDIT:
stupid me i've used vgreduce --removemissing on that missing HD. I can't re-add now:
vgcfgrestore server
Cannot restore Volume Group server with 1 PVs marked as missing.
Restore failed.
pvs -v

what's the 'm' attribute? sdd1 is the HD that i was having trouble with.

Perhaps try a:
to activate it, does that help?
You can also try in addition to this the pvscan and vgscan commands as well, but normally when I've had a problem with LVM errors because of it being inactive/missing, I've used the vgchange command. _________________ Ian Walker

Yeh, i could only partially activate the LVM. It still omitted one HD. I've screwed up, removing the missing drive. Once I removed the drive, then i have tried to fix the LVM, which was a mistake. Then motherboard seen the missing HD!! It was too late . . .. if only i didn't remove it from LVM!!! I've only lost like 6 TB
Had my lesson, I'm not using lvm for important stuff, only ext4. It's easier to deal with |
