Re: [Xen-users] LVM and resize2fs




Also, on a slightly off-top note, I made a mistake: I dd'ed an image file over to a non-exsistent LV. However, dd created a new file in /dev/vg0 !! Is this really bad? Could I have currupted some of the LVs? Or is it safe to just remove the new file using rm?

I wouldn't have thought LVM would get too upset - it keeps it's own details on disk. But I would expect your new file to disappear when you reboot since AFAIK /dev is dynamically built.

As it turns out, /dev/vg0 is just a normal folder with symlinks to /dev/mapper, so i just removed the file with rm and all is well with the world again :)
