The /etc/sysconfig/lvm uses the default value which should load all volumes: LVM_VGS_ACTIVATED_ON_BOOT="" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Add multiple lvm volume groups and volumes to those groups 2.Boot up 3.run: lvscan Actual Results: inactive '/dev/storage/backup' [50.00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/storage/storage' [150.00 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/wave/swap' [8.00 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/wave/opensuse12' [20.00 GiB] inherit Expected Results: ACTIVE '/dev/storage/backup' [50.00 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/storage/storage' [150.00 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/wave/swap' [8.00 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/wave/opensuse12' [20.00 GiB] inherit Looking at /etc/init.d/boot.lvm it looks correct /sbin/vgchange -a y $LVM_VGS_ACTIVATED_ON_BOOT But the default value is off: wave:~ # chkconfig boot.lvm boot.lvm off The line used for booting grub: root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/934a5ad6-663f-409f-bc4b-37c5685e92bf resume=/dev/wave/swap splash=silent quiet The system is not installed through the defualt installer, instead bootstrapped through zypper and then installed additional patterns through YaST and might be the cause the LVM not loading; tho i find that hard to belive since i use the same method to build virtual guests: zypper --root /mnt/bootstrap ar http://download.opensuse.org/factory-tested/repo/oss "factory-tested-oss" zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys -n --root /mnt/bootstrap install -l zypper -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
