<rant> No. The problem described is LVM caused a loss of data. Then a secondary issue was exposed that data recovery was not possible because no backups were made prior to the data loss. Just because you have a backup doesn't mean you don't loose data. It just means you have the possibility of recovering previously lost data. </rant> -- Scott Russell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Linux Technology Center, System Admin, RHCE.
