[linux-lvm] want to remove a disk

[Alejandro Santillan]

Thank you for your answer Fabien. The result of vgdisplay and pvdisplay
commands is:

[root at s2 httpd]# /usr/sbin/vgdisplay
  --- Volume group ---
  VG Name               VolGroup00

[root at s2 httpd]# /usr/sbin/pvdisplay
  --- Physical volume ---
  PV Name               /dev/sdb1
  VG Name               VolGroup00

  Allocatable           yes (but full)
  PE Size (KByte)       32768
  Total PE              2384

  --- Physical volume ---
  PV Name               /dev/sda2
  VG Name               VolGroup00
  PV Size               74.41 GB / not usable 0
  Allocatable           yes
  PE Size (KByte)       32768
  Total PE              2381
  Free PE               2
  Allocated PE          2379
  PV UUID               RGvP2W-GVKx-Ukjk-9gab-mF4F-HXGo-43Ql12

As far as I understand there are two 80GB HD sata. One as a master (sda2)
and one as slave (sdb2).
I would like to have all the logical volume data on the sda2, and be able to
remove the sdb2 without disrupting the server.
Is that possible?

Thanks,

Alejandro

You should give more informations, like where does VG VolGroup00 stands
(sda1 ?). Try the following :
vgdisplay
pvdisplay
