See "man lvm"
This lists the related tools, in particular
lvscan (scan for logical volumes)
lvdisplay - which will tell you about volumes
and especially
vgscan
I tried ur suggestion .. but it seems like its only scanning the local
drives - ignoring the HDD thats connected through USB ... but i'll
keep trying ... thanx :)
btw ... the lvm group in my local hdd have the same name than the one
in USB ... will this causes conflicts that might able to cause
dataloss??
which I suspect is what you need in order to make the volumes appear
