[linux-lvm] Problems adding and moving disk.

[kalle]

Hello!

After installing a new disk and moving one other disk from master to slave I cant get my VG back online. Im running 2.4.19 with the 1.0.5 tools

When vgchange -ay runs at boot up I get this error:

Trying to vfree() bad address (40176008)

I tried running a vgscan -d and I got this:


<1> lvm_get_iop_version -- CALLED
<22> lvm_check_special -- CALLED
<22> lvm_check_special -- LEAVING
<1> lvm_get_iop_version -- AFTER ioctl ret: 0
<1> lvm_get_iop_version -- LEAVING with ret: 10
<1> lvm_lock -- CALLED
<22> lvm_check_special -- CALLED
<22> lvm_check_special -- LEAVING

..and it hangs there

I managed to get everything back online if I removed the new disk and moved the otherone back from slave to master.

Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Kalle,

that sounds like a hardware fight at first glance.

Are cabling and master/slave settings all right?
Does your BIOS autodetect the disks fine?

Run the oops through ksymoops to make any sense out of it.
