RE: [suse-autoinstall] lvm volume group problem
SLES9 SP5
<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>
<partitions config:type="list">
<partition>
<mount>/</mount>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">reiser</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
I have a stanza in my autoinstall.xml file that looks like this, and the partition is getting created and flagged as an LVM partition, but the volume group is not being created. Additionally, I still have to run pvcreate on the partition before I can do a vgcreate with it. Am I missing something?
<partition>
vg0 primary <size>max</size> </partition>
poste your SUSE Linux version and your complete partitioning section please. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-autoinstall-help@suse.com

Interesting. Here at SUSE the latest SP we have is SP3.
<partitioning config:type="list"> <drive>
...
</drive> </partitioning>
I don't know how this will be solved with SP5 but with SP3 you have to configure a second <drive> with <device>/dev/vg0</device> if you have a volume group with the name vg0. Put all partitions into that drive that shall be in the LVM. example 4.16 on page: http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.Partitioning.html#id252985... explains it. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
