Hi,
I discovered that lvm seems to have a problem
with compaq raid controllers - the partitions
don't have the normal names like /dev/sda1,
but instead names like /dev/ida/c0d0p1 -
lvm seems to works OK, but lvmdiskscan freaks...
lvmdiskscan works normally on other systems,
which have conventional disk controllers.
This is OK -
case: /tmp
(tty/dev/pts/1): bash: 623 > lvscan
lvscan -- ACTIVE "/dev/lxlvm/lvm1" [3.12 GB]
lvscan -- 1 logical volumes with 3.12 GB total in 1 volume group
lvscan -- 1 active logical volumes
This is OK too -
case: /tmp
(tty/dev/pts/1): bash: 622 > df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/ida/c0d0p1 1007928 220124 736604 24% /
/dev/ida/c0d0p8 2015904 251196 1662304 14% /home
/dev/ida/c0d0p7 1007928 240 956488 1% /opt
/dev/ida/c0d0p9 4031856 1660664 2166380 44% /usr
/dev/ida/c0d0p3 2015920 61768 1851744 4% /var
/dev/lxlvm/lvm1 3225352 1888308 1173204 62% /disks/backup
But this is not in agreement:
case: /tmp
(tty/dev/pts/1): bash: 625 > lvmdiskscan -v
lvmdiskscan -- reading all disks / partitions (this may take a while...)
lvmdiskscan -- filling directory cache...
lvmdiskscan -- walking through all found disks / partitions
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/ida/c0d0p1 [ 1000.06 MB] free whole disk
lvmdiskscan -- no valid disks / partitions found
lvmdiskscan -- please check your disk device special files!
Hope this is of use -
