I use lvm on an external USB disk, and I also get those messages ('read
failed after 0 of 4096') when the disk goes offline and then returns.
What seems to work for me is '/etc/init.d/lvm2 stop' followed by
'/etc/init.d/lvm2 start'.
I thought of that, but what about internal LVs? Wouldn't you have
to first umount them?
I currently only use lvm on my external disk, so I don't have to worry
about that. But I assumed that even if one did, it would still be
better, if not quite as simple, to do that, than to reboot.
