My apologies for being away for a few days. There should be no difference with the process because they will both do the same thing. If the lost LUN is now available and visible to the volume group, then the sync, however it runs will have to read the appropriate physical partitions from the good side and copy them to the stale side if the PP has been updated. It will not copy the data if the PP has not updated, but for a large LV, this process can take some time to complete.
You should be able to monitor it from another session so you get an idea of progress and see the stale PP count reducing.

I've created a partition with GNU Parted, how do I mount the partition?
The manual information at http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/parted.html is good, but I am sure about how I mount the partition afterwards.
Thanks,

I've got two users that show in "w" with long idle times but if I search for their processes I find nothing (ps -ef | grep username )
I'm not sure why "w" still sees them and if there is anything (short of a reboot) that I can do to clean them out.

pvremove
pvremove(1M) pvremove(1M)
NAME
pvremove - remove LVM data structure from a physical volume
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The command clears the LVM data structure on a disk, so that it is no longer an LVM physical volume. The device may then be used by the
file system or by other volume managers.
The operation is denied if pv_path is assigned to a volume group. The command only clears the LVM data structure on a disk if the disk
does not belong to a volume group. This avoids accidentally removing a valid physical volume under a volume group. If the physical volume
to be removed belongs to a volume group, use the command to first remove the volume group associated with the physical volume.
Arguments
recognizes the following arguments:
pv_path The character (raw) device path name of a physical volume.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
determines the language in which messages are displayed.
If is not specified or is null, it defaults to "C" (see lang(5)).
If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting, all internationalization variables default to "C" (see environ(5)).
EXAMPLES
Remove LVM data structure on the physical volume
