fsck'ing LVM


Greetings,

I seem to have some flakey read/write problems on my linux box lately. I googled about fsck'ing my LVM, and found a bunch of posts describing how fsck messed up their LVM partition.

Can anyone give me advice on how I should properly fsck my LVM partitions? Currently I am using JFS.

Thanks,

- brad

Welcome to LQ!

Just run fsck on the logical volume device (Eg:/dev/vg0/lv0). *Don't* use it on PVs
