      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      With ONLY_INCLUDE_VG= and/or AUTOEXCLUDE_DISKS=y
      a disk with an unused PV is automatically included in the layout.
      h3. Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      rear      -2.4-16.el7_9.x86_64

      How reproducible:

      always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. create a simple PV: pvcreate /dev/vdc
      2. run rear mkrescue
      3. the disk vdc is included, but can't be recreated during recover:
      4. lvmdev /dev/ /dev/vdc 82jhUQ-c9zf-u0TV-bhr3-WMGp-NTR8-rehPao 41943040

      Expected results

      disk excluded

      Actual results

      disk with unused PV is included in layout, but can't be restored.

       

      This has been fixed in RHEL8:

      Skipping PV /dev/vdc that is not part of a valid VG (VG '' empty or more than one word):
