Hi,
I had created some lvm partitions in hdb. Now i have formatted hda and of course all the confs and entries in /dev have disappeared- the whole OS installation is included here, hdb is just an extra storage. With "lvdisplay", i
can see these:
Code:
vakhos:~/xen-3.0.1-install# lvdisplay
Incorrect metadata area header checksum

--- Logical volume ---

Can i restore the "lvm system"? Of course /dev doesn't contain any volume group entries and trying to recreate the volume group entries with vgcreate returns an error.
Code:
vakhos:~/xen-3.0.1-install# vgcreate poseidon /dev/hdb5 /dev/hdb6
Incorrect metadata area header checksum

A volume group called 'poseidon' already exists.
Thanks
