Hi,
I am struggling to recover from a failed pvmove. Unfortunately I only have
a limited knowledge of lvm. I setup my lvm configuration many years ago.
I was trying to move a lv to a SSD using pvmove. Unfortunately my brand new
SSD choose that moment to fail (never buy cheap SSDs, lesson learnt!").
This is the current status.

I am quite happy to loose the root lv, I just need the home and work lvs.
What am I missing?
Help!
Roger
