I renamed my volume with vgrename however I didn't complete the other steps. Mainly update fstab and intiramfs. Once I booted, I was dropped on the Dracut shell. From here I can see the newly rename VG and I can lvm lvscan as well as activate it, lvm vgchange -ay. However I can't figure out what to do next, I'm assuming I need to regenerate the initramfs and then boot to change

I posted this to the Fedora-list, but thought I might get some additional information here as well. I have a HD that refuses to mount with a 'bad magic number in super-block'. I'm running FedoraCore 6 x86_64.

Hi all, One of our Dell servers has failed badly, and one of the domU's has been corrupted in the process. It boots up to a point and then gives me a kernel panic: Loading dm-zero.ko module Loading dm-snapshot.ko module Scanning and configuring dmraid supported devices Scanning logical volumes Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... No volume groups found Activating

I'm trying to setup a LVM mirror on 2 iSCS targets, but can't. I have added both /dev/sda & /dev/sdb to the LVM-RAID PV, and both have 500GB space. [root at HP-DL360 by-path]# pvscan PV /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 VG LVM lvm2 [136.59 GB / 2.69 GB free] PV /dev/sda VG LVM-RAID lvm2 [500.00 GB / 490.00 GB free] PV /dev/sdb VG LVM-RAID lvm2 [502.70 GB /

I have a degraded raid array (originally raid-10, now only two drives) that contains an LVM volume. I can see in the appended text that the Xen domains are there but I don't see how to mount them. No doubt this is just ignorance on my part but I wonder if anyone would care to direct me? I want to be able to retrieve dom-0 and one of the dom-Us to do data recovery, the others are of

Hi, I am trying to recover data from my old system which had LVM. The disk had two partitions - /dev/sda1 (boot, Linux) and /dev/sda2 (Linux LVM). I had taken a backup of both partitions using dd. Now I am booting of CentOS live cd for system restore. I recreated partitions like previous system using fdisk and then used dd to dump all the data onto it. I would like to mount sda2 as LVM, but I

Hi all I want to shrink one of my LVM based domU''s, but don''t quite know how to do it. I have searched the Wiki & HOWTO''s, and they all show you how expand / enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it. So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started it up again, I

Hi all I have a remote server (i.e SSH access only) which was incorrectly partitioned and I urgently need to get it up and running. It's got a 500GB HDD, but the PV is only 10GB big, so I can't add more LV's to to. P.S. This is on LVM, btw.

Hi, One of our servers has a too small root partition on LVM and needs to be resized. Can / be safely increased online, without a reboot? [root at zaxen02 ~]# lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/LVM01/root' [4.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/LVM01/home' [20.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/LVM01/var' [4.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE

So here goes... First some back story -Centos 5 with latest updates as of yesterday. kernel is 2.6.18-238.19.1.el5 -setup is raid 1 for /boot and lvm over raid6 for everything else - The / partition (lvm "RootVol") had run out of room... (100% full, things where falling appart...) I resized the root volume (from 20GiB to 50GiB). This was done from a fedora 15 livecd,

Hi, I have exactly the same problem that you experienced in Nov, 2013. I am using ext4 with journaled quota and the quota usage is only updating when I run quotacheck manually. Have you found a solution? Regards, Alex > I have set up user quotas on an ext4 filesystem. It does not appear that > the quota system is being updated, except when I manually run quotacheck. > > More detail:

Hello everyone. I have the following problem that could help would appreciate. 1) Environment: HOST 1: xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64 with all VM in LVM disk. HOST 2: XCP 0.5 2) The VM that I wish migrate is a domU in XEN and is debian lenny over LVM: ................................................................................................... # Configuration file for the Xen instance

Hi all- I''m hoping someone can help me with this problem with Xen under CentOS 5.1 (RHEL 5.1) I''m having... This is the Xen package that comes stock with the distribution, I didn''t compile it from source. I can boot Domain0 and the hypervisor just fine. I''m trying to bring up a Xen guest VM and it crashes on boot, with this error: # xm create -c tcga1

...0 SHV Server Board. 2) Installed Centos 5.1, default LVM style. Anaconda saw a single 500GB disk so I assumed this was a true hardware RAID system. Am I wrong here? 3) Then wanted to reduce LogVol00 so as to make room for a new, data only filesystem on its own LV. Started by booting with rescue CD, lvscanned the disk, lvchanged -a y. Intended to resize root filesystem with resize2fs. Was asked to fsck, which I did (by the way, getting many errors). Fixed them all (fingers crossed), fsck again said ok. Then resize2fs worked happily. 4) Rebooted the installed system. Now "Duplicate PV" shows at...

Hi Folks, I've inherited an old RH7 system that I'd like to upgrade to CentOS6.1 by means of wiping it clean and doing a fresh install. However, the system has a software raid setup that I wish to keep untouched as it has data on that I must keep. Or at the very least, TRY to keep. If all else fails, then so be it and I'll just recreate the thing. I do plan on backing up

Can anybody tell me if it makes a difference if domU''s have separate LVM volume groups? For instance, the Xen User Manual ( http://tx.downloads.xensource.com/downloads/docs/user/#SECTION03330000000000000000) says, when setting up a domU''s disks with LVM, to do a vgcreate vg /dev/sda10 Should each domU have it''s own volume group, or can all the domU''s share

Does anybody here have any idea how to make an exact copy of a drive that has LVM partitions? I'm having trouble using dd to do this for an EL5 server. We're trying to diagnose a software problem of some kind and would like an exact, perfect copy of the software running so that we can see exactly what the problem is without disturbing our production copy. It's been admin practice

hello, i am a newbie to this list and i don't know if this has been posted before (if so, plzz accept my apologies) i just noticed a nice mini-howto on ext2-ext3 conversion at http://www.symonds.net/~rajesh/howto/ext3/index.html i think that maybe a link can be added to this after the download section... cheers Sayamindu *********************************************************************

Hi, I have problems getting lvm to work on my domU. The dom0 is a CentOS 5 installed on lvm. I''ve added two extra lv, one for root and one for swap. [root@surr log]# lvscan ACTIVE ''/dev/VolGroup00/dom0vol'' [3.91 GB] inherit ACTIVE ''/dev/VolGroup00/dom0swap'' [1.94 GB] inherit ACTIVE

hello everyone. i guess this has been asked before, but haven't found it in the faq. i have the following issue... it is not uncommon nowadays to have desktops with filesystems in the order of 500gb/1tb. now, my kubuntu (but other distros do the same) forces a fsck on ext3 every so often, no matter what. in the past it wasn't a big issue. but with sizes increasing so much, users are
