Renamed Volume Group name on Webmin while running samba server (oops)

Hi...I'm new to Linux and was working on a home server. I have it operational with Samba Share as my NAS system. Unfortunately, while I was on Webmin I changed the Logical Volume Group Name and now I can't find the data I had saved on my Samba Server.

Can anyone help me recover those files?

thanks much,

Lester

NAME
vfs_prealloc - preallocate matching files to a predetermined size SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = prealloc DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite. The vfs_prealloc VFS module preallocates files to a specified size each time a new file is created. This is useful in environments where files are of a predetermined size will be written to a disk subsystem where extending file allocations is expensive. This module is stackable. OPTIONS
prealloc:EXT = BYTES Preallocate all files with the extension EXT to the size specified by BYTES. The following suffixes may be applied to BYTES: o K - BYTES is a number of kilobytes o M - BYTES is a number of megabytes o G - BYTES is a number of gigabytes EXAMPLES
A process writes TIFF files to a Samba share, and the is known these files will almost always be around 4 megabytes (4194304 bytes): [frames] path = /data/frames vfs objects = prealloc prealloc:tiff = 4M CAVEATS
vfs_prealloc is not supported on all platforms and filesystems. Currently only XFS filesystems on Linux and IRIX are supported. VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite. AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed. Samba 3.5 06/18/2010 VFS_PREALLOC(8)
