Hello All,
Just wanted to give a special thanks to Anders Widman
and Heinz Mauelshagen for their help in resolving the error
condition I was receiving with my disk devices while trying to
run vgexport. It was, in fact, duplicate PV entries in the
directory /etc/lvmconf Apparently, the devices were used
previously as part of another volume group and the entries were
never cleaned up! I am back up and running now so thanks!
I have a quick question on the ability of LVM with
respect to redudant paths. With my HP servers we are able
to run vgextend after vgcreate has created a volume group to
indicate an alternate path. Like so:
# pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c2t0d1
# pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c2t1d1
# mkdir /dev/vgoradata
# mknod <truncated>
# vgcreate /dev/vgoradata /dev/dsk/c2t0d1
<Now, here is what I would like to do with
LVM on Linux>
# vgextend /dev/vgoradata /dev/dsk/c2t1d1
# lvcreate -l 4000 -n oradata /dev/vgoradata
# lvextend -m 1 /dev/vgoradata/oradata
Now, I am using 1.0.3 and before I tear my current setup down
I was wondering if there is a way to do the same thing with
LVM for Linux (maybe 2.0 supports this???). Okay, again, thank
you for your time!!!
Cheers,
Travis
