Hi, I want to rename some volume groups and logical volumes. I was not surprised when it would not let me rename active volumes. So I booted up the system using the CentOS 5.5 LiveCD, but the LiveCD makes the logical volumes browsable using Nautilus, so they are still active and I can't rename them. Tried: /usr/sbin/lvchange -a n VolGroup00/LogVol00 but it still says: LV

I'd like to rename my existing volume groups and logical volumes (I picked names a long time ago I no longer like :-). I recently stumbled across the lvrename and vgrename commands, but when I tried the former to rename the logical volume that my root partition resides on, the system became unbootable. In addition to renaming the LV (and VG if I decide to to that as well), what

I have a centos 5.6 server that has xen domUs installed on their on logical volumes. These logical volumes contain their own volume groups and again their own logical volumes. I want to access the domU logical volumes and tried this: [root at kr ~]# fdisk -l /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 Disk /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02: 274.8 GB, 274877906944 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 33418 cylinders Units =

Hi all, I'm setting up Centos4.2 on 2x80GB SATA drives. The partition scheme is like this: /boot = 300MB / = 9.2GB /home = 70GB swap = 500MB The RAID is RAID 1. md0 = 300MB = /boot md1 = 9.2GB = LVM md2 = 70GB = LVM md3 = 500MB = LVM Now, the confusing part is: 1. When creating VolGroup00, should I include all PV (md1, md2, md3)? Then create the LV. 2. When setting up RAID 1, should I

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

Hi all! I'm new to this list. I wanted to have an opinion of the situation i'm facing now (i'm no expert in LVM). Last week, i had to re-install a system which had a system hard drive crash (it was clunking before it definitely died!). It was running on SuSE 9.0 before. I just finished to install a fresh copy of CentOS 4.4 on a new hard disk. I want to know if it's possible

I'm testing doing kickstart installations on Xen VMs. This is the first time I'm trying out kickstart at all, so I rather think I'm doing something wrong in the kickstart configuration than it is a Xen issue. I use a modified kickstart file from an earlier manual installation with a very basic filesystem setup. It fails with "SystemError: vgcreate failed for VolGroup00".

Hi, I recently installed centos for the first time and I like it! Also, I just started working with lvm. The following warnings are genertated whenever I run one of lvm commands on the external usb disk (MyBook by Western Digital). * What could be the source for those messages? * Should I worry about them (writing into the created LV's seems to work)? * If yes, how to fix them?

I installed a fresh copy of Debian 4.0 and Xen 3.1.0 SMP PAE from the binaries. I had a few issues getting fully virtualized guests up and running, but finally managed to figure everything out. Now I''m having a problem with paravirtualized guests and hoping that someone can help. My domU config: # # Configuration file for the Xen instance dev.umucaoki.org, created # by xen-tools

Hi all, I need to add a drive with the same LVM labels (i.e. system) to a machine with a drive with the same label. How can I access the data on both drive's LVM partitions at the same time? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers

Hi list. I am dealing with DRBD (+GFS as its DLM). GFS configuration needs a CLVMD configuration. So, after syncronized my (two) /dev/drbd0 block devices, I start the clvmd service and try to create a clustered logical volume. I get this: On "alice": [root at alice ~]# pvcreate /dev/drbd0 Physical volume "/dev/drbd0" successfully created [root at alice ~]# vgcreate

CentOS 7 for everything I am probably never using lvm again. I have never not once actually benefited from its capabilities but this is probably the third or fourth time it has gotten in my way. Issue is that I use the tools so rarely that I can't recall what needs to be done to properly mount the drives on another system and finding that info on the web is becoming more difficult as the

Are folks in the Centos community succesfully using device-mapper-multipath? I am looking to deploy it for error handling on our iSCSI setup but there seems to be little traffic about this package on the Centos forums, as far as I can tell, and there seems to be a number of small issues based on my reading the dm-multipath developer lists and related resources. -geoff Geoff Galitz Blankenheim

So I''m writing my (dis)adventure with btrfs here hoping to help the developers or someone with similar problems. I had a btrfs filesystem at work, using two 1TB disks, raid1 for both data and metadata. A week ago one of the two disks start having hundreds of relocated sectors, so I decide to change it. I remove the failing disk, mount with -o degraded and every works fine. The day later
