I think once the LV is created, IDS overwrites the header info, and if you never fire up the LVM again you can run like that for years. It is only when an engineer arrives to fix something that he will fire up the LVM, which will "fix" the corrupt header. ;-) Cheers, -- Mark. +----------------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Mark D.
