Replacing a Disk When the Volume Group Consists of One Disk

If you can access a disk that is going bad as part of a volume group, see "Add fixed disk without data to existing volume group" , or "Add fixed disk without data to new volume group" , and "Migrating the Contents of a Physical Volume" for information about adding individual disks and moving data.

If the disk is bad and cannot be accessed, follow these steps:

1. Export the volume group.
2. Replace the drive.
3. Recreate the data from backup media that exists.
