Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2013-23668
2013-12-20 00:30:16
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : lvm2
Product     : Fedora 20
Version     : 2.02.103
Release     : 5.fc20
URL         : http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2
Summary     : Userland logical volume management tools
Description :
LVM2 includes all of the support for handling read/write operations on
physical volumes (hard disks, RAID-Systems, magneto optical, etc.,
multiple devices (MD), see mdadd(8) or even loop devices, see
losetup(8)), creating volume groups (kind of virtual disks) from one
or more physical volumes and creating one or more logical volumes
(kind of logical partitions) in volume groups.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update fixes a bug in lvm2-pvscan@<major>:<minor>.service and 
global_filter processing. The lvm2-pvscan service called the pvscan improperly 
with absolute path to /dev/block/<major>:<minor> which then required exact 
matching lines in global_filter for the device to be accepted or rejected. This 
update fixes this in a way that the absolute path is not used for the 
lvm2-pvscan service and the device is referenced solely by its major and minor 
pair. This means that for the global_filter to match the device, we can pick 
any of the device name aliases for the filter line to be applied.

This bug may have caused the PVs to be incorrectly ignored while they were 
supposed to be visible and the LVM volumes may have ended up inactive while 
they were supposed to be activated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Wed Dec 18 2013 Peter Rajnoha <[email protected]> - 2.02.103-5
- Use major:minor in [email protected] for proper global_filter application.
* Wed Dec 11 2013 Peter Rajnoha <[email protected]> - 2.02.103-4
- Fix SYSTEMD_READY assignment for foreign devs in lvmetad rules.
