Hi:

First do a lvdisplay -v on the volume group
(e.g. vgdisplay -v /dev/vg02) and make sure that the logical volume in question display a status of available. Next, make sure that the device node, both raw and block exist.
Are you using the block device when the character device might be expected?

You also need to make sure that the volume group that the lvol belongs to is activated.

vgchange -a y /dev/vg??

Is there a reason why you were running an fsck? Did a filesystem become unavailable?

If you are running fsck on "raw" lvnames,
it can come up with that error. Run
it on a the regular lv name.
eg: /dev/vg00/lvol5

If you still get the error, post the command
you are using .
