[rhelv6-list] LVM question about filter option in lvm.conf file and persistent disk name format

[Andrew Galdes]

Not sure on the answer but if you have disks that are sometimes there and
other times not (like backup disks), consider labelling them with "e2label
/dev/sdXY BACKUP" and mount them in "/etc/fstab" that way. By doing that,
your system disks shouldn't change.

Sorry not to answer your question. Good luck.

I hope this helps.
