Logical volumes not available on reboot. Quick fix to bring logical volumes back online: The "lvdisplay" command will show the status as "not available" to change the status you need to issue: #lvchange -a y /dev/ This will bring them back online. I'm currently testing this workaround to fix the problem and make the lv's available at reboot: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/logical-volumes-not-available-on-reboot-724093/
