Subject: [linux-lvm] problem running vgscan..Is it a megaraid issue or an LVM issue ??
Date: Thu Jun 27 03:56:02 2002 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D1AD32B.400@ti.com> (raw)
Hi,all
I posted this on the megaraid devel list thinking it was a megaraid
problem..But maybe it's LVM doing tricks..Here goes:
I've had problems with a volume group not showing up after a reboot..
After booting up the volume group on the megaraid is not
detected.Running vgcfgrestore on the individual disks the volume group
can bring it back...That is until I run a vgscan resulting in this output:
vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
vgscan -- found active volume group "vg0"
vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created
vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your volume

these errors appear on the console after running it along with a lot of:
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
invalidate: busy buffer
and the volume group vg1 is completely gone..It can be brought up again
like this:
vgcfgrestore -v -n vg1 /dev/sdb1
vgcfgrestore -v -n vg1 /dev/sdc
vgchange -ay
and then it's OK until vgscan is run...
setup:
Poweredge 2550
Megaraid (2 adapters)..from dmesg:

running Debian 2.2 with kernel 2.4.17

Anyone know what's going on with this ?? It's our main server so it's
not possible to boot very often..That's why I'd like to investigate all
possible options before trying to debug further..
best regards
Christian
