[linux-lvm] Backup/Recovery Strategies

[Axel Schweiger]

Can anyon  suggest backup/recovery strategies for filesystems under LVM.
(Version 1 and 2)
 
1) If I loose the data in the /etc/lvm directory (or lvm.d) do I loose the
filesystems controlled by lvm?
2) How do I recover from a loss or corrpution of the LVM data.
3) What happens if the LVM filesystems have changed since the last backup of
the metadata?
 
Sorry if this shows a profound lack of understanding of LVM but I''m new to
this and haven't been able to find any recipes for doing 
backups?

Thanks much
Axel
