I have had many many troubles with the linux LVM itself. I would rather
suggest using a well configured linux softare raid. This is much more
stable than LVM! I lost 250GB because of LVM and did not have a backup.
With software raid on linux this would not have happened....
So the problem was that you didn't have backups rather than a fault of the
LVM, right?
