[linux-lvm] Problem with vgscan "only found 626 of 625 LEs for LV"

[Tomas Edwardsson]

Here is what vgscan shows:

vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- found inactive volume group "vg00"
vgscan -- only found 626 of 625 LEs for LV /dev/vg00/lvol1 (0)
vgscan -- ERROR "vg_read_with_pv_and_lv(): allocated LE of LV" can't get data of volume group "vg00" from physical volume(s)
vgscan -- ERROR "vg_read_with_pv_and_lv(): allocated LE of LV" creating "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d"

I also tried pvscna, but I don't know if that's relevant:

pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdb2"  is associated to an unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdc2"  is associated to an unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdd1"  is associated to an unknown VG (run vgscan)
pvscan -- total: 3 [16.00 GB] / in use: 3 [16.00 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]
