Subject: [linux-lvm] Inactive volume at boot time
Date: Fri, 18 May 2007 12:17:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <464D8B43.6040703@streamline-computing.com> (raw)

I've just had a system which had a problem mounting a logical volume.
SuSE 9.3 and

I log in and lvscan says the volume is inactive.
vgchange -a y and it is active, and mounts first time.
In the boot log:

Scanning for LVM volume groups...
   Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while...
   No volume groups found
Activating LVM volume groups...
   No volume groups found

Is there any other way of checking why it couldn't find the volumes at 
boot time? The two physical drives are seen OK just before the LVM start.
I guess another reboot will be the acid test, just wondering if there is 
another diagnostic I can run.
