<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Nevermind....figured it out I think.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>All I did was upgrade from 1.0.1-rc4 to 1.0.3
(figured the newer tools might have some better error handling) and then did a
vgcfgrestore to all the partitions/new disk and then ran vgscan and *bam* it's
back in business!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks all!</FONT></DIV>
