Hi, we use FAI to install ganeti hosts too and i've run into this as well. We use a seperate vg for ganeti and the os, and in some cases seperate disks that form a vg. Ganeti creates lvs when an instance is provisioned so there is no need to be anything else there.
Of course, we workaround it by creating a dummy lv and the deleting it. But we could also do with not creating one at all.
