無法新增 PV

Device /dev/sdj not found (or ignored by filtering).

Solution: 可能該磁碟有包含其他磁區

# fdisk -l /dev/sdj

移除這磁碟裡的所有磁區後再試一次。

移除已損壞的 PV

無法移除已經損壞 PV 的 VG 與 LV

有一個 PV - /dev/sdc 發生損毀,所屬 VG 與 LV 要移除時遇到錯誤:

    Couldn't find device with uuid APgmaN-yCZG-WfQS-L5zm-vd6g-oEJc-WjzNrT.
    Can't remove locked LV isths_DMS

      Couldn't find device with uuid APgmaN-yCZG-WfQS-L5zm-vd6g-oEJc-WjzNrT.
      WARNING: Partial LV isths_home needs to be repaired or removed.
      WARNING: Partial LV isths_DMS needs to be repaired or removed.
      WARNING: Partial LV pvmove0 needs to be repaired or removed.
      There are still partial LVs in VG vg_db.
      To remove them unconditionally use: vgreduce --removemissing --force.
      Proceeding to remove empty missing PVs.

Solution: VG Name: vg_db

# vgcfgbackup vg_db
Couldn't find device with uuid APgmaN-yCZG-WfQS-L5zm-vd6g-oEJc-WjzNrT.
Volume group "vg_db" successfully backed up.

/etc/lvm/backup/vg_db:

...
logical_volumes {
...
...
}
...

將段落 logical_volumes 整個移除。

執行 vgcfgrestore

# vgcfgrestore vg_db
Restored volume group vg_db

重新掃描再重新執行移除 LV 與 VG

pvs
vgs
lvs
vgremove vg_db
USB 掛載包含有 LVM 的硬碟,出現錯誤訊息

# mount -t ext3 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt/lvm00
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00,
           missing codepage or helper program, or other error
           In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
           dmesg | tail  or so

Solution:

vgchange -an VolGroup00
vgchange -ay VolGroup00
mount -t ext3 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt/lvm00
移除 PV Disk

從一個現有 LV 中移除正在使用的一個 PV Disk (/dev/sdb1)

NOTE: 這個 LV 的所屬 VG 必須要有足夠的可用空間

搬移 PV Disk

搬移現有 PV Disk (/dev/sdb1) 內的所有資料至一個新的 PV Disk (/dev/sdd1)

方法一:使用 Mirror 方式 *建議*

參考連結:

說明:

  • VG: vg_data
  • LV: db_worktmp, lv_mydev, lv_worktmp
  • PV: from /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdc

1. 確認新硬碟的容量需求

#> lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices,lv_size vg_data

LV Cpy%Sync Devices LSize
db_worktmp /dev/sdb1(0) 20.00g
lv_mydev /dev/sdb1(5121) 60.00g
lv_mydev /dev/sdb1(10242) 60.00g
lv_worktmp /dev/sdb1(20482) 500.00m

2. 將新硬碟加入到同一個 VG 內

#> vgextend vg_data /dev/sdc

3. 逐一將所有 LV 作完 Mirror

#> lvconvert -m1 vg_data/db_worktmp
#> lvconvert -m1 vg_data/lv_mydev
#> lvconvert -m1 vg_data/lv_worktmp

檢查 Mirror 時的進度
#> lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices,lv_size vg_data

4. 逐一將所有 LV 移除 Mirror,需指定舊硬碟代號

#> lvconvert -m0 vg_data/db_worktmp /dev/sdb1
#> lvconvert -m0 vg_data/lv_mydev /dev/sdb1
#> lvconvert -m0 vg_data/lv_worktmp /dev/sdb1

5. 從 VG 裡移除 PV /dev/sdb1, 再移除整個 PV

#> vgreduce vg_data /dev/sdb1
#> pvremove /dev/sdb1

方法二:使用 PV 搬移指令 pvmove

NOTE: PV 必須在同一個 VG 才能互相搬移

無法新增 LV

系統剛安裝完,執行 pvdisplay -C 出現錯誤,並且無法新增 LV

Couldn't find device with uuid ZrneWS-8KHd-UiXV-rQ4q-YU0o-r9Ga-0ZVBPW

Solution: 這個硬碟可能曾經做過 LVM 格式化,這些是之前遺留的裝置名稱,要清除這些不存在的舊設定。

# vgreduce -removemissing <vg-name>

TIPs:

    要查出這些不存在的 device 的所屬 VG,可以執行 pvdisplay 。
