Hello Patrick,
First of all, thank you for your very quick reply.
Sorry to break the thread. I saw your reaction in the BTS about 3 hours
ago, but the mail has not reached me yet, so I can't reply :-(

That _does_ get rid of the listing of physical partitions.
vgscan -vvv now looks like

Hmmm. How would I do that?
As I understand it, the backups are saved in /etc and as I can not access
my sys-root LV, I can not get to the backups.
Or is there some kind of trick to that?
I've also attached the output for 'lvdisplay >lvdisplay.txt 2>&1'.
Note the 'Device ??? has been left open' lines in that output.
Cheers,
Frans Pop
