Description Jeremy Katz 2004-08-23 21:05:32 UTC

If I do pvcreate on a device that used to be part of a RAID array, the
md signature doesn't get wiped from the disk.  

This is a bit less than ideal.

pvcreate updated in CVS to do this.

But if --uuid or --restorefile is specified without -y, it asks the
question: these options are normally used when recovering metadata
from a backup and in cases like that you might well want the md
superblock left intact.

After running an md command, always run vgscan before running any
other LVM command.
