Configuring your Environment for Software RAID
Creating Volume Groups and Configuring VG Exclusive Activation on the MD Mirror
Found duplicate PV 9w3TIxKZ6lFRqWUmQm9tlV5nsdUkTi4i: using /dev/sde not /dev/sdf
With this error, you cannot create a new volume group on /dev/md0. As a result, you must create a filter for LVM. To create a filter, add the following line in the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file:
filter = [ "r/dev/cdrom","r/dev/hpdev/md0_mirror0", "r/dev/hpdev/md0_mirror1" ]
where /dev/hpdev/md0_mirror0 and /dev/hpdev/md0_mirror1 are the persistent device names of the devices /dev/sde and /dev/sdf respectively.
NOTE | When adding the filter, ensure that you use the persistent names of all |
| the devices used in the mirrors. |

|
This prevents these mirror devices from being scanned or used for logical volumes. You have to reload LVM with /etc/init.d/lvm
Once you add the filter to the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file, create the logical volume infrastructure on the MD mirror device as you would on a single disk.
