(Run 'dmsetup info -c' on each machine.) What 'vgchange -ay VGXX' means is 'activate all the LVs in VGXX on every node in the cluster taking account of any restrictions defined in local lvm configuration files on each node'. (Run 'lvm dumpconfig' on each machine.)

I understand your point of view, but it looks more like a permissive behaviour than a normal and desired one (my own opinion). All the cluster nodes are setup with cluster locking (locking_type=3). >From my understanding (and experience from other platforms), vgchange -a y should not be allowed unless the lock holding node has released it (prior vgchange -a en VGXXX one node1 then vgchange -a y one node2 [or node1] to make it active on all nodes). Or if the holding node is dead. Wouldn't that be safer ? I always tend to imagine the unaware admin that gets on a cluster node on which the VG is not active (held exclusively by another node) and thinking he's doing the right thing activates (vgchange -a y) the VG, and then mounts the FS.....

I know you guys are doing a lot of improvements on LVM, and I'm not expecting a fix/enhancement asap, I just need to know if it gets considered and planned, at what term one should expect it to be done.

If you do 'vgchange -ay guest' again then all of them will be activated because the locks have all been changed to CR by the previous command. I have a full set of logs and am investigating.

Now, if a lock is granted at one mode and an attempt to convert it wthout the LCK_CONVERT flag set then it will return errno=EBUSY. It might break some things in other areas, but I doubt it.
