I've just encountered this issue, and I thought my problems were over
once I found this post..
Fyi, previously lvscan on my system shown root, pool00, and every
volume but swap as inactive
I followed your instructions, but the system still fails to boot. I've
run 'vgchange -ay' and o saw the following printed a number of times.
device-mapper: table 253:6: thin: Couldn't open thin internal device
device-mapper: reload ioctl on (253:6) failed: no data available
I ran 'lvscan' again, and this time some VMS were marked active, but a
number (root,various -back volumes, several -root volumes, etc)
Really terrified everything is gone as I had just recovered from a
backup while my hardware got fixed, but I don't have the backup anymore.
Can't tell which post you're replying to, but I get the idea. The
volumes you are most concerned about all end in --private. If you've
gotten them to the point where they show as active, you can make a
subdir and "sudo mount /dev/mapper/qubes_dom0-vm--work--private subdir"
for example, copy out the contents, umount subdir and move on to the
next. You can ignore --root volumes, since installing default templates
will recreate. If you can't get the --private volumes you want to show
as active, I'm afraid recovering those is beyond me.
Also, if you can't get a --private volume active, try its
--private--######--back equivalent.
