Ah ok. But do people really expect to be able to reuse a filesystem/PV if they flush their partition table? > Another minor annoyance is that Linux::LVM doesn't support pvscan, > so we'd need to parse output manually.

See attached files (the "_-X" says which option I used for generating the according file, pvscan.txt provides the default output if being executed without any options). JFTR: I used the following configuration file for setup-storage: disk_config disk1 bootable:1 fstabkey:uuid primary /boot 2000 ext3 rw logical - 0- - - disk_config lvm vg FAIBASE disk1.5 FAIBASE-rootfs / 5200 ext3 rw If you need any further information please let me know. regards, -mika-
