I installed the LVM on Redhat Linux 7.3. I am not able to display anything when I do a vgdisplay or lvdisplay. Nothing seems to work. I was trying to compile the source but the configure is failing on a /usr/src/src/linux not found. Redhat does not have such a file thats why I turned to the RPM's but they do not seem to be working correctly. Has anyone else experienced any problems compiling or using LVM?
thanks in advance

Hi,
If you are building a newer version of lvm from source for redhat 7.3
(there is one already compiled and provided as a module), you need
to be sure you have the kernel-source rpm installed. Since redhat
uses /usr/src/linux-2.4 instead of /usr/src/linux as the kernel
source base you either need to create the /usr/src/linux link
yourself or when you run the LVM configure command use the option
--with-kernel_dir=/usr/src/linux-2.4, this is what I do.
I have had no problems with lvm on rh7.3.

John,
Thanks for the information. I think my problem is I do not have the kernel- source rpm installed. Any idea where I can get it from?
thanks

any redhat mirror?
search the appropriate rpm with rpmfind
(http://www.rpmfind.net/) it should be something
like kernel-2.4.18-3.src.rpm for the actual SRPM
which produces (if rebuilt) kernel-2.4.18-3.i386.rpm
(the kernel rpm) and kernel-source-2.4.18-3.i386.rpm
(the kernel sources, already patched)
best,
Herbert

Hi,
If you have the cds is on the first one I believe. Otherwise you can
download it from redhat (or any mirror I believe).
