Recently needed to remove a failing drive from one of my servers. That
drive was a physical volume (/dev/hdd) containing VG1, containing LV1. I
installed a new drive (temporarily) on /dev/hdb created a new volume group
VG2 containing a single logical volume LV1... formatted ext3 and transferred
the data.
Now that the failing drive has been removed from the server I want to move
the new drive from /dev/hdb to /dev/hdd (ie. move th drive to the secondary
IDE controller). My problem is that the system doesn't see the volume group
if I just move the drive. What do I have to do to tell the system to look
for VG2 on /dev/hdd instead of /dev/hdb?
Thanks,
