Re: [linux-lvm] F7 will not boot after running backup w/snapshot

[Gerry Reno <greno verizon net>]

Just to finish documenting the recovery from the corruption:

I was able to fully restore the root logvol and then I rebooted the 
system.  The system came up fine without having to make any special 
adjustments to LVM metadata.  It figured it out.  The only thing I 
noticed was a blizzard of SELinux avc denials.  So I ran a relabel and 
that seemed to cure those.  I did a 'cat /etc/lvm/backup/VolGroup00' and 
took a look at what was in there.  It was in the state that included the 
snapshot0 and my snapshot logvol.  I then did a vgdisplay -v and LVM 
rewrote the meta backup and when I checked it again the snapshot0 and my 
snapshot were gone.  So the system appears to be recovered and working 
again.
