[linux-lvm] Problems after upgrading LVM

[Klaus Agnoletti]

Hi,

I recently updated from linux 2.4.6 to 2.4.13-ac8, from LVM 0.9something
to 1.0.1rc4.
I am using debian, so I grabbed the two packages - lvm10 and lvm-common.

Something must be wrong though, cause I can't mount my LVM anymore.

This is what happens :

Vault:~# mount /glftpd/site
mount: /dev/site_vg/lvol1 is not a valid block device
Vault:~# pvscan
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hda8"  is associated to an unknown VG (run
vgscan)
pvscan -- inactive PV "/dev/hdb1"  is associated to an unknown VG (run
vgscan)
pvscan -- total: 2 [71.35 GB] / in use: 2 [71.35 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]

Vault:~# vgscan
vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created
vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your volume
group

Vault:~# vgcfgrestore -n site_vg /dev/hdb1
vgcfgrestore -- ERROR: different structure size stored in
"/etc/lvmconf/site_vg.conf" than expected in file vg_cfgrestore.c [line
139]
vgcfgrestore -- ERROR "vg_cfgrestore(): read" restoring volume group
"site_vg"

Vault:~# vgchange -ay
vgchange -- no volume groups found

What's the matter ? Is it a problem that can be fixed by uuid_fixer ?

Thanks in advance,

Klaus
