Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.05-1Installing version 2.02.05-1 from the lvm2 package makes my striped VG unreadable (the other vg does well), downgrading to 2.01.04-5 fixes the problem.
I can not give you the exact outcome of the vgdisplay but it gave about the same outcome as in the report of Igor Belyi, Tue, 28 Jun 2005 19:11:49 -0400 (this appears to be the same problem), but some other name of the volume and other counter numbers (most probably 547 != 1094).
I would say it looked like (i can get you this but than I have to render my system 'unusable' first):
# vgdisplay datavolume LV backup: inconsistent LE count 547 != 1094 Internal error: LV segments corrupted in backup. Volume group "datavolume" doesn't exist now it says (with 2.01.04-5): # vgdisplay datavolume --- Volume group --- VG Name datavolume System ID muziekje1075727894 Format lvm1 VG Access read/write VG Status resizable MAX LV 256 Cur LV 1 Open LV 1 Max PV 256 Cur PV 2 Act PV 2 VG Size 34.19 GB PE Size 32.00 MB Total PE 1094 Alloc PE / Size 1094 / 34.19 GB Free PE / Size 0 / 0 VG UUID elbhhh-3TS6-Qhju-ie78-13sj-rGG4-euaOEr Attached is the /etc/lvm/backup/datavolume config file.
