I see. I thought it was physical disks. Yes, I have four logical volumes.

Thank you again for all your help.

Bryn,

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I'm glad to see this is not an issue.

As for "dev253," if I only have three physical devices, why four dm entries?

Thanks again.

The "dev253" entries are the logical volumes (or other device-mapper devices), not the physical devices themselves.

I see you have three PVs in the volume group (sda1, sdb2 & sdc1), but how many LVs do you have in your volume group?

Just post the output of the "lvs" command if you're unsure.

Kind regards,
Bryn.
