Re: trying to reduce mirror

Torsten,

Yes, I have created a great mess, unfortunally I inherited this system recently and did not get a chance to patch it.

VG /dev/oravg04a is in lvmtab if you look at the bottom of the strings output.

Not sure what happened to oravg04 that happened prior to me getting the box.

Where to go from here is the question?

Re: trying to reduce mirror

Somehow (!!!) someone changed /dev/oravg04 to /dev/oravg04a.

Let's try this first:

# vgscan -p -v

What do you get?


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: trying to reduce mirror

Re: trying to reduce mirror

Per Torsten request I have updated this thread.
I have 2 seperate issues with this server.
1. VG oravg04a mirror will not sync up all the details are above.
2. VG oravg04 is a live VG but for some reason /etc/lvmtab no longer knows about it.

thoughts?

Re: trying to reduce mirror

Strangely enough I was able to resolve my issue by using SAM. For some reason the command line just wasn't cutting it.

Thanks for all who offered assistance.
