The VG is seen, but not the one LV in there
kernel: 2.6.14
LVM version: 2.01.04 (2005-02-09)
Library version: 1.01.00-ioctl (2005-01-17)
Driver version: 4.4.0
My PV for /dev/dshelf3 is /dev/md5
The VG is found, but not the LV within it, apparently because LVM
selects /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/md5.
Sure enough, that drive is part of the raid set:
gargamel:~# cat /proc/mdstat | grep sda1
md5 : active raid5 sdg1[6] sdf1[5] sde1[4] sdd1[3] sdc1[2] sdb1[1] sda1[0]
vgdisplay -vv (abbridged) gives:
/dev/sda1: lvm1 label detected
/dev/md2: lvm1 label detected
/dev/md4: lvm2 label detected
/dev/md5: lvm1 label detected

Can I help LVM2 find the LV in there somehow?
BTW, note that LVM2 did say "using md /dev/md5 (instead of /dev/sda1) and
still showed /dev/sda1 as a PV for dshelf3 instead
Thanks
