I want to replace an existing 32bit with a 64bit installation (Centos 5). There's an existing LVM with lots of partitions. Most are used for Xen guests. The system itself uses only one of them plus a separate /boot partition that is not on LVM. What's the best course of action here? Should I do the reinstall with kickstart or better manually and reuse the existing filesystem? As I

Hi guys, I have two disks, one with OS and a second disk containing an LVM. I would like to OS reload the server without losing LVM. I heard that LVM is self sustaining. Is that true ? Should I backup something(using vgcfgbackup & vgexport ?) to get LVM running after os reload. Thanks in advance. -- Sherin

.../data Works. cd to /mnt/data and I can see the files left on the volume from the previous tests. Moving/copying/read/write -- works. ################################################### 3. Is it safe to assume when using RedHat System Storage Manager it's not necessary to use the lvm commands (vgexport and vgimport) to move two physical drives containing a logical volume in raid 1 from one computer to another? Thanks for your help and guidance.

Hi guys, I need to move an lvm based domU from one dom0 to another dom0. How do you guys do ths? xm save/restore doesnt have the option to specify lvm target as the storage.

Hi list, I'm having one of those 'I'm stupid' -problems with LVM on CentOS 5.2. I've been working with traditional partitions until now, but I've finally been sold on the theoretical benefits of using LVM, but for now I only have a huge pile of broken filesystems to show for my efforts. My scenario; I attach a disk, either over USB or iSCSI. I create a PV on this
