We have run into a problem on a CentOS 6 installation where LVM would not put online disks that were read only. The bug started at a version that I unfortunately forgot and was fixed in a newer version that I forgot as well. But I managed to find one of the versions that was wrong, which was lvm2-2.02.87-6. At that time we were on CentOS and did not have support contract with Red Hat so we just rolled a custom RPM with a patch which I was able to find: --- ./lib/device/dev-io.c.orig 2012-08-31 03:45:14.000000000 -0400 +++ ./lib/device/dev-io.c 2012-08-31 03:46:22.000000000 -0400 @@ -282,7 +282,7 @@ static int _dev_read_ahead_dev(struct de return 1; } - if (!dev_open(dev)) + if (!dev_open_readonly(dev)) return_0; if (ioctl(dev->fd, BLKRAGET, &read_ahead_long) < 0) { The project where we needed this got cancelled so I have not followed up whether Red Hat fixed it or not, but this should give you some leads.
