Need help importing a volume group

[cdwells]

Hello all.. I pray someone here can help me with this

I recently exported a volume group on a linux system as I was going to replace a failing system drive (not in the volume group). I exported the VG per the FAQ and then tried to import iton the new "system"..

I received the error:

vgimport kbvg /dev/hde /dev/hdf
vgimport -- ERROR "pv_check_consistency(): PE size" checking physical volume consistency of "/dev/hde"
vgimport -- ERROR "pv_check_consistency(): PE size" checking physical volume consistency of "/dev/hdf"
vgimport -- ERROR: no valid physical volumes found to import volume group "kbvg"

I replaced the old drive and tried ti import again with the same results.. I have no idea what to do next to troubleshoot this.. I have tried vgcfgrestore with no positive results. Any helpful feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris Wells
