lvcreate & lvremove

Hi

 

Trying to create a new LV in /dev/vg19.  SAN has only just been presented to the server.  I'm getting already exists errors on the lvcreate, nor is it letting me lvremove.  The server was ignited using make_tape.

 

PLease see below:

 

root@server at /home/root =>lvremove -f  /dev/vg19/coins_local_scripts
lvremove: Couldn't delete logical volume "/dev/vg19/coins_local_scripts":
The supplied lv number refers to a non-existent logical volume.
Volume Group configuration for /dev/vg19 has been saved in /etc/lvmconf/vg19.conf

root@server at /home/root =>ll /dev/vg19
total 0
brw-r-----   1 root       sys         64 0x0a0001 Jul 10  2010 coins_local_scripts
crw-r-----   1 root       sys         64 0x0a0000 Jul 10  2010 group
crw-r-----   1 root       sys         64 0x0a0001 Jul 10  2010 rcoins_local_scripts


root@server at /home/root =>lvcreate -L 3064 -n coins_local_scripts vg19
lvcreate: Logical volume "/dev/vg19/coins_local_scripts" already exists.

 

Any ideas?

Regards

Tariq
