Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 Corey Marthaler 2018-05-29 18:25:07 UTC
SCENARIO - [vgcfgrestore_mirror_with_missing_pv]
Create a mirror, force remove a leg, and then restore it's VG
mckinley-04: lvcreate  --type mirror -m 1 -n missing_pv_mirror -L 100M --nosync mirror_sanity
  WARNING: New mirror won't be synchronised. Don't read what you didn't write!
Deactivating missing_pv_mirror mirror
Backup the VG config
mckinley-04 vgcfgbackup -f /tmp/mirror_sanity.bkup.25530 mirror_sanity
Force removing PV /dev/mapper/mpathbp1 (used in this mirror)
mckinley-04: 'pvremove -ff --yes /dev/mapper/mpathbp1'
  WARNING: PV /dev/mapper/mpathbp1 belongs to Volume Group mirror_sanity (consider using vgreduce).
  WARNING: Wiping physical volume label from /dev/mapper/mpathbp1 of volume group "mirror_sanity"
Verifying that this VG is now corrupt
  WARNING: Device for PV LijBYU-jbu2-L4gF-fLib-rFFJ-yCaD-YhnUf4 not found or rejected by a filter.
  Failed to find physical volume "/dev/mapper/mpathbp1".
Attempt to restore the VG back to it's original state (should not segfault)
mckinley-04 vgcfgrestore -f /tmp/mirror_sanity.bkup.25530 mirror_sanity
  Couldn't find device with uuid LijBYU-jbu2-L4gF-fLib-rFFJ-yCaD-YhnUf4.
