AGAIN: [linux-lvm] Kernel 2.4 -- invalid i/o protocol version

AGAIN: [linux-lvm] Kernel 2.4 -- invalid i/o protocol version

[Ernesto Silva]

Hi guys, I'm posting this again, if anyone has any idea, please let me know, I
need make lvm work.
Thanks

	I'm having some trouble trying to make LVM work.

	I've recently installed  a new server, runing RedHat 7.0. I have also
installed 2.4 kernel with LM support.

	Then I  have downloaded lvm-0.8final from the sistina ftp site, then I
compiled it (I also included the patch) and I installed it. (well, no eveything
was so smoothly, but it's installed now).

	I can load the lvm-module fine, but when I run vgscan or pvcreate (I
also created a 0x8e type partition in my primary scsi disk) it complains saying
that:  "vgscan -- invalid i/o protocol version"

	Do you have any ideas how to fix it?

I only have one scsi disk of 18GB, but I will add at least another 2 in the
next month, so I need it working. Do you think this will work?? I'm almost
betting my job on it.

thanks

The 2.4 kernel has LVM 0.9 in it, not 0.8 so you need to download the 0.9.1beta
tools.

It's also a good idea to patch the kernel up to beta7 too. If you download the
0.9.1beta7 tarball it has all you need in there.
