I forgot to remove an LVM snapshot after making a backup. Now neither the snapshot nor the original volume are available. How do I recover and get the original volume back online?
Currently, the output of lvs looks like
LV VG Attr LSize Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% ...... dom5_data VolGroup01 -wi-ao 10.00G domTemplate_data VolGroup01 -wi-a- 2.00G dom6_data VolGroup02 owi-i- 24.00G dom6_snap VolGroup02 swi-d- 1.00G dom6_data 100.00
option 1) remove the snap shot, original should be fine then option 2) extend the snap shot, original should be fine then
