[linux-lvm] Need to remove broken hdd, and need to move the stuff i can from the broken disk

[^YosH^]

Hi, I have a bit of a problem, I have just bought a new 250 GB disk and
I have put it into my lvm, but now it seems to be broken so I need to
replace it. But I have data on it that I need to save. I don't know how
much of the disk is used by data and I don't know how much is free on
the other disks.

I have 5 disks in the LVM

/dev/hdg is the one that is broken... when I have mounted the lvm disk
and are trying to read or write to it this shows up in the logs:

How can I remove the disk? And how can I figure out whats actually
stored on it... I really need to have the rest of the lvm saved. And I
don't have any backups. (I know I should have backups but I haven't had
time to get a backup station that can store all that stuff on not too
many tapes...)

Would appreciate any help, thank you.
