Package: lvm2
Version: 2.03.01-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
At boot time, lvm2 displays the following lines:
lvm2-activation-generator: lvmconfig failed
lvm2-activation-generator: Activation generator failed.
systemd[369]: /lib/systemd/system-generators/lvm2-activation-generator failed
with exit status 1.
I investigated why and what follows are my strace-based conclusions.
As you probably know already, lvm2-activation-generator runs:
/sbin/lvmconfig global/event_activation global/use_lvmpolld
After the latest lvm2 upgrade, it turns out /etc/lvm/lvm.conf does *not* contain
event_activation in its global section.
Therefore, lvmconfig:
- outputs "Configuration node global/event_activation not found" on stderr;
- outputs "use_lvmpolld=1" on stdout;
- exits with return code 1, hence the reported error.
Note: this issue happens to be a red herring for #917124 (and possibly
#917136), i.e. this message is not the root cause of those bugs (it seems to be
some combination of udev and the 4.19 kernel).
That's it; I hope it helps.
