read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
after failure of root disk(vg00) which was mirrored and replacement of the faulty disk,
I get the following during reboot of the server:

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
you have not mentioned on which system this happened?
What steps did you take during replacement?
Have you tried to boot system from old disk only?

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
I assumed that you did all necessary steps before. E.g. pvcreate -B, mkboot, lvlnboot, lif ...
Before you start ignite, try to boot in maintanance mode and execute command:
#lvlnboot -R
Maybe it can help.

Mario.

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
The disk through which the system is trying to boot is either faulty or has got coppution due to failure in other disk. What happens if you boot of the other disk?

I cannot bot from any of the disks, some more ideas ?

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
Having boot in LVM maintenancemode can you post
#vgdisplay -v /dev/vg00
&
#lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol*
&
#mountall
&
#bdf

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
Forget to mention that before all these also use
#vgchange -a y -q n /dev/vg00
And then try these commands. Also try running fsck manually and see what happens.
But get ready to use the recent gnite backup. Try a few things before finally going for it.
How critical is the system/downtime?
HTH,
Devender

Re: read of super-block on /dev/vg00/* failed
Is it time for ignite?
Yes you can start restoring ignite. But first replace the disk. Also first tell with which disk the system is currently booted? and is other disk removed or still inserted?
If only one disk is currently inserted then try LVM maintenance boot from the other disk and retry these steps.
Has you removed the wrong disk?
Also what is the criticality of the system?
What is the output of
#strings /etc/lvmtab
If vg00 is not listed here then run vgscan to recreate lvmtab.
HTH,
Devender
