Recovering an encrypted LVM drive from another system

I had an SSD begin to fail on my laptop.  The symptoms were interesting, a md5um of a large tar file began to produce inconsistent results.

My backups were a little basic on my laptop - so I replaced my SSD and went through this procedure to recover what I could from a SATA disk caddy with the SSD attached.

1.  fdisk /dev/sdb to determine the LVM partition (/dev/sdb5 say).
2.  Decrypt the partition ready for mounting:

          cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb5 recover-disk

3.  vgscan to find the current volumes available
4.  lvdisplay to find the volumes we can say (vg-mint/root say).
5.  Mount the LVM partition:
       
     mount /dev/vg-mint/root /mnt/other-disk

6.  Now the drive is mounted, and we can copy data off (hopefully!)
