hi,

one think, what about sync the VG and if its in mirror state, use the lvreduce command again.

vgsync /dev/vgxx

Hello All,

Are 1 & 2 the PV key for the stale PE's as posted above.

Yes .... correct

pvkey 2 and 1 are stale
00001 0 01625 current 2 01625 stale 1 00001 stale

lvreduce -m 1 -k 1 /dev/vg_name/lvolXX
lvreduce -m 0 -k 2 /dev/vg_name/lvolXX

Or try:

vgreduce -f vg_name <<== to remove unavailable/unresponding disks from VG

Regds,

Hi....

Try this one:
lvreduce â k â m 1 /dev/vg_name/lvolXX 1

Regds,
