Package: lvm2 Version: 2.03.16-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
`/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/69-lvm.rules` file expects completion of a volume group before activating it. While the logic behind this behaviour is pretty clear (we continue to enumerate physical volumes until the group gets completed at last), it kinda defeats the purpose of `activation/activation_mode` configuration option, which can allow activation of partially failed volumes. Say, in a case of a single failed physical volume of a RAID1 LV, the VG would never be "complete", so won't be activated, which (if this VG contains an FS accessed at boot time) usually leads to falling into init maintenance mode at boot. While in a case of a desktop PC it's usually not that hard to enter root password and give `vgchange -ay` command, in a case of unattended system this can be rather problematic. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.8 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (991, 'stable-updates'), (991, 'stable-security'), (991, 'stable'), (99, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.11.5-bootes2-p-1000 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lvm2 depends on: ii dmeventd 2:1.02.185-2 ii dmsetup 2:1.02.185-2 ii libaio1 0.3.113-4 ii libblkid1 2.38.1-5+deb12u2 ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u9 ii libdevmapper-event1.02.1 2:1.02.185-2 ii libedit2 3.1-20221030-2 ii libelogind0 [libsystemd0] 246.10-1debian1 ii libselinux1 3.4-1+b6 ii libudev1 254.16-1~bpo12+1 ii lsb-base 11.6 ii sysvinit-utils [lsb-base] 3.08-3~bpo12+2 Versions of packages lvm2 recommends: ii thin-provisioning-tools 0.9.0-2 lvm2 suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/lvm/lvmlocal.conf changed [not included] -- debconf-show failed
