RE: [linux-lvm] Serious problem and I don't know where to turn.

AH, well for the first issue it was because I had the iScsi portal’s incorrect. So it was doing two separate connections under my two Ethernet cards instead of a single bonded connection, that issue is fixed.

The two ACTIVE lvm’s are the boot drive. This is a default Centros install so it sets the drive up like that. Here is a better out

[root server ~]# lvscan -a

ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00' [147.00 GB] inherit

ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01' [1.94 GB] inherit

[root server ~]# vgscan

Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...

Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2

Found volume group "ANIME" using metadata type lvm2

Basicly, I have a volume called “ANIME-logical” I am trying to restore, but I don’t have the metadata. Is there a way I can get to it?

Found duplicate PV 5Up3QCLOFKXTDA1OHoWUfMrYne4SdXmb: using /dev/sdb1 not /dev/sda1

How did this happen? Why is the PV magic number on /dev/sdb1 exactly the same as on /dev/sda1?

[root server archive]# lvscan

I looks like your lvs are up. Can't you just mount them?
