vgchange -ay hangs with lvm2 on MC3
« on: September 29, 2010, 02:00:49 PM »
I remember lvm2 working in the past, as I was using a swap drive from lvm2.

I am not sure when it stopped working, but I tried it now with MC 3.0, 3.1, and with 3.2rc1.
pvscan works.
pvdisplay works.
vgscan works.
vgdisplay works.
lvscan works and shows both logical volumes inactive.
vgchange -ay hangs, and
lvscan shows /dev/VolGroup00/Logvol00 ACTIVE and /dev/VolGroup00/Logvol01 inactive.
There is no /dev/VolGroup00 directory.

Gerald, I submitted an update to 2.02.74 earlier this day, it should be available soon - could you try again when it's available and report your experiences?
Best regards,
Robert

Robert, I updated and rebooted, but no change.
Thanks.

Packaging bug, forgot to copy the udev files where they belong on installation ;) Fixed version is submitted!

3 hours and 20 minutes pass after submission and it has not been uploaded yet to the repo?  I should be fired.    :)

Just kidding, but I will upload it when I get home tonight and have TC access.

Not critical, but I would like my swap back.  :)

Since it is a bugfix I will place it first in line, will arrive around 8pm EST.
