[maelamrani]

Hello,
I have an issue about an LV that bug on 100% even if a delete files so when i did a reboot the problem is solved and the lv is at 13%, my question is can fix the issue without reboot there something that can initialize the LV or rescan and fix LV issue without reboot ?
Kind regards

It's most likely a file that is still held in memory by an application or program, after the the reboot of the system it is gone because of that application or program no longer using it but restarting of closing that application should be enough instead of doing a full reboot. You can use the command lsof to find the file and by what process it is in use. For example like this.

lsof | grep filename

q
It will the come with an output looking something like this.

COMMAND      PID    TID TASKCMD      USER   FD      TYPE             DEVICE  SIZE/OFF       NODE NAME

Using the PID and COMMAND you can probably find which program is still using that file and NODE NAME will be the path of the file, if the file has been delete it will have (deleted) at the end.
