Sorry for my ignorace about all this.
1. Document what you do, that way you can refer to your notes later. You should have some documentation describing how you have the server configured.

2. If the SCSI was not a permanent addition, why did you add it to an existing LVM?

3. I am assuming you didn't use that, that is just an example, we can't help if you don't tell us exactly what you did.

4. Who let you on the box as root? Was the machine critical?

pvck

PVCK(8)                                                       System Manager's Manual                                                      PVCK(8)

NAME

       pvck - check physical volume metadata

SYNOPSIS

       pvck [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [-v|--verbose] [--labelsector] PhysicalVolume [PhysicalVolume...]

DESCRIPTION

       pvck checks physical volume LVM metadata for consistency.

OPTIONS

       See lvm for common options.

       --labelsector sector
              By  default, 4 sectors of PhysicalVolume are scanned for an LVM label, starting at sector 0.  This parameter allows you to specify a
              different starting sector for the scan and is useful for recovery situations.  For example, suppose the partition table is corrupted
              or  lost  on  /dev/sda, but you suspect there was an LVM partition at approximately 100 MB.  This area of the disk may be scanned by
              using the --labelsector parameter with a value of 204800 (100 * 1024 * 1024 / 512 = 204800):

              pvck --labelsector 204800 /dev/sda

              Note that a script can be used with --labelsector to automate the process of finding LVM labels.
