recreate swap device

[Patricio Besteiro]

Hi sysadmins!

My question is, do you think is possible to recreate the primary swap device on maintenance mode?

I have 2 extents stale on primary drive for that lv and the drive have been already replaced...

goes like this:

....

 00260      0             00285 current       1             00285 stale
   00261      0             00286 stale         1             00286 current
   00262      0             00287 current       1             00287 stale
   00263      0             00288 current       1             00288 stale

.....

thanks,

That might work.  It would have to be LVM maintenance mode if it would work at all.  It is not something i have ever tried.

Have you tried doing an 'lvsync /dev/vg00/lvol2' to see if you can sync the stale extents?
