Title: Cannot create lvm upon IMSM raid array Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in lvm2 source package in Focal: Confirmed Status in lvm2 source package in Groovy: Confirmed Bug description: The issue has been observed on 2.3.7 (Ubuntu 20.04). Reported to lvm team: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1855251 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create IMSM raid array: #mdadm -CR imsm -e imsm -n2 /dev/nvme[01]n1 #mdadm -CR vol -l1 -n2 /dev/nvme[01]n1 -z 5G 2. Create lvm volume on raid: # pvcreate -ff -y /dev/md/vol # vgcreate group0 /dev/md/vol # lvcreate -Z y -y -l +100%FREE group0 -n lvm0 Actual results: Vg creation fails. Expected results: LVM should be able to determine the best drive and ignore duplicates. Additional info: IMSM metadata is written at the end of the drive. The first drive sector belongs to the raid volume and other metadata saved there (like lvm) can be recognized directly on raid members. The following patches should fix the issue (not verified yet): https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=23774f997ea077f2cbe8a32bd8bccdd7f4560cca https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=00c9a788cc617e5e40746dee2e17287d61ee5c81 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lvm2/+bug/1887372/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
