Recover vg and lg after running fdisk

run fdisk on a vg with a few lvs , and label it as 8e..and reboot the system..

I wonder if there is still a way to recover the data at all:confused::rolleyes:

Is it even possible to run fdisk on a volume group? Do you mean you ran it on the physical volume?

What does vgscan and lvscan come back with?

I suspect you are stuffed....I would restore from backup. Recovery is possible but a seriously arduous task!

yes, you can run fdisk and modify the partition while it is on a LVM, it is a bit scary..

vgscan and lvscan came up with nothing , after running fdisk

I am not Linux lvm expert, I know it could recover because the metadata is initialize from fdisk, there is more than 50% chance you could recover,
