Q: change raid0 volume name?

Really no one knows...?
Bummer :cry:

You'd have to get in via SSH to do it. Boot up with just the disk/volume you want to rename, unmount the filesystem, then use vgrename and lvrename to rename the volume group/logical volume. Make sure you've got your mount points in /etc/fstab and you should be good.

Thanks! That worked, I have changed /dev/c/c to /dev/d/d.
But now, when I put the original /dev/c/c back in, the new /dev/d/d is not recognized... :(

Could that have anything to do with settings stored in the little raid1 partition that's automatically created?
Both /dev/c/c and /dev/d/d are in fstab, but /dev/d is not in /dev nor in /dev/mapper. So I can't mount /dev/d/d manually...
lvscan and vgscan only find /dev/c/c and volume group c.

Any ideas anyone?

/edit: when I swap the disks (left to right, right to left) /dev/d/d gets recognised but not /dev/c/c. It seams the settings on (only) the left disk are used...???

Well, I almost nailed it.
For future refetence, this is what I did:


with only original disk [d] to copy:

root ~ # vgs

  VG   #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize VFree
  d      1   1   0 wz--n- 1.81T 5.00G


root ~ # lvs

  LV   VG   Attr   LSize Origin Snap%  Move Log Copy%
  d    d    -wi-a- 1.81T

-> only one volume appeared

vgchange -a n
vgrename /dev/d /dev/c
lvrename /dev/c/d /dev/c/c

reboot 2x

shutdown

Insert new disk [d]
create new volume [d] (in frontview)

start
reboot 2x

copy contents from original [d] (now [c]) to new [d]

rsync -av --stats /c/recordings/* /d/recordings

reboot

shutdown

remove original disk [d] which is now disk [c]

start + reboot

shutdown

insert original disk [c]

start

-> new disk [d] not recognized

root / # mount /dev/d/d /d

Now new volume [d] gets mounted.

Only when I reboot, the mount is lost and I have to do it manually.

So the remaining question is: how to get drive / volume [d] to mount at boot?
