I have executred de following command:

lvremove -f -A y /dev/vg01/lvol1

Did i lost all data or just lvm configuration on disk?

Is it possible to recover the data with lvm commands?

Thanks

Hi,

no you lost just lvm configuration.

you should run vgcfgrestore for all disks containing your lv. with -A option vg information is backed up in . you can check conf file
ls /etc/lvmconf/vg01.conf and lvm configuration:
vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg01 -l

first deactivate vg :vgchange -a n vg01
then do vgcfgrestore for all disks in vg:

vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg01 /dev/rdsk/cxtydz

activate vgchange -a y vg01
and check filesystem with fsck.

Hope it helps.
Kenan.

Shalom,

No, the data is probably recoverable.

You should be able to recover whats there so long as its not been over-written.
