I believe you want to do a 'vgcfgrestore -nw0 /dev/hda8; vgcfgrestore -nw0
/dev/hdb3'. Let me know if that fixes things. And remember, do *not* do a
vgscan right after your vgcfgrestore because it will revert to the previous
state. Simply run the vgcfgrestore command, and then try the 'vgchange -ay'
to activate the volume group.
Let me know if that fixes things.
