Hi People
I just updated a CentOS 5.2 Server that is a Guest inside VMware ESX 3.50 Server using "yum update". As far as I can tell the only three packages were updated
Jul 24 16:37:49 Updated: php-common - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386 Jul 24 16:37:50 Updated: php-cli - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386 Jul 24 16:37:50 Updated: php - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386
But when I rebooted the Server one of my Volume Groups VolGroup01 would not mount. By removing all references to VolGroup1 in /etc/fstab I was able to get a system that boots. Unfortunately I am not that familiar with LVM but using the following commands it looks like all the information about my logical volumes on VolGroup01 is gone is this correct? Is there likely to be any chance of recovering from this ?

Thank you for any advice you may have relating to this.
