[linux-lvm] Volume group inconsistent

[Marcos Dutra]

Thanks again Eric!

You're wright, I have 64 pv each one 500GB hdd. I have problems with my pv
starting by pv0 until pv23, I had seen after dd lvm doesn't recognize the
devices of these pvs, status "unknown device", others devices I don't have
the same problem. I cut this output from dd of hdisk plt-85 = pv64

Device with problem

-----

pv0 {
id = "N7lOu9-Ahjn-lf19-WVFW-xglN-yfL6-KOOw6O"
device = "unknown device"

status = ["ALLOCATABLE"]
flags = ["MISSING"]
dev_size = 1048576000
pe_start = 2048
pe_count = 127999
}

-----

Device without problem

-----

pv24 {
id = "D8aEQf-2CVS-oyVE-t40G-kOd7-eUe5-SkCe8V"
device = "/dev/mapper/mpathr"

status = ["ALLOCATABLE"]
flags = []
dev_size = 1048576000
pe_start = 2048
pe_count = 127999
}

-----


But the output from another hdisk plt-01 = pv0 I have different view.

-----

pv0 {
id = "N7lOu9-Ahjn-lf19-WVFW-xglN-yfL6-KOOw6O"
device = "/dev/mapper/plt-01"

status = ["ALLOCATABLE"]
flags = ["MISSING"]
dev_size = 1048576000
pe_start = 2048
pe_count = 127999
}

-----

I'm getting crazy lol...

Thank you

Marcos Dutra
