LVM filesystem integrity
LVM gives you flexibility at the cost of more complexity. When a system with LVM configured is shutdown uncleanly, there may be some trouble getting back on track again.

- Search for your volume group to see that it’s available:
sudo vgscan
- Activate your volume group:
vgchange -ay
