====== REPAIR CENTOS7 ====== from [[https://acmedata.in/2016/09/23/xfs_repair-an-lvm-on-centos-or-other-distros/#comment-391|here]] Boot from repair disk On prompt, skip to shell vgscan -v --mknodes (double lines at the end) This will find and create /dev/xxx/ nodes for the lvm. But it is not mounted so it’s good. Now activate the volumes, it still does not actually mount them, so still good. vgchange -a y Now see what volumes are active with another lvscan lvscan I have /dev/centos/root which is what I need to fix. It is an XFS volume so this time I do xfs_repair /dev/centos/root Reboot
