Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • vgdisplay shows "Volume group vg00 not found" while 'fdisk' and 'mount' shows the volume group intact, why ?
  • LVM metadata seems fine and refers to all the volume groups and logical volume groups in it. All files in /etc/lvm/archive and /etc/lvm/backup exist and refer to the volume group.

Environment
