Hi list,
the actual git-snapshot from today seems a bit broken:
If i generate a snapshot from an existing thinpool-device, the device is
created (visible by lvdisplay), but no softlink will be created, nor in
/dev/myvg/ neither in /dev/mapper.
Same config like in last mail today.
What happened?

By default thin snapshots are no longer created as active devices.
If you want to create active snapshot - add option '-K'
(lvcreate -K -s)
You could lvchange this activation behavior.

...also there's the activation/auto_set_activation_skip
setting in lvm.conf to enable or disable this automatic
skipping of certain LVs on activation (there's a short
comment above that setting that explains it). This setting
is enabled by default.
See also lvcreate/vgchange/lvchange man pages and the documentation
for "-K/--ignoreactivationskip" and "-k/--setactivationskip {y|n}" options.
