[Touch-packages] [Bug 1887964] Re: VG unavailable after upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 Cannot process volume group vg01 Volume group "vg01" not found
So I upgraded from 18.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS too and found that the installed 5.4 kernel panics complaining something about volume group. I booted the 4.15 kernel wich put in a volume group warning too but at least runs. After adding 8.8.8.8 to the resolv.conf the machine is almost ready to work with (yup, I run my own dns/dhcp/dovecot/postfix which all need attention once that kernel/vg bug is no longer in the way). Since my /boot partition is small, I initially thought the ramdisk image is missing/broken/corrupted (there were some warnings in the upgrade process which got stuck between cannot upgrade and cannot restore to initial state - which let me to reboot the machine, trying to fix that on my own). So I uninstalled the 4.4 kernel so only 4.15 and 5.4 are left. While grub was updating I noticed several WARNING: PV /dev/sda1 in VG nameOfVolumeGroup is using an old PV header, modify the VG to update. So I ran sudo vgck --updatemetadata nameOfVolumeGroup to fix that, hoping it would suffice to make 5.4 boot. It didn't: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown- block(0,0) So I booted the 4.15 which complained Volume Group not found nameOfVolumeGroup Cannot process volume group nameOfVolumeGroup but at least booted. Once the machine is booted the volume seems to be accessible, not sure why. Not sure why that didn't work for 5.4. I checked /etc/crypttab but as I don't have crypted drives it contains only the comment header, hexdump -C shows it ends with 0a so no problem there. Now I'm a bit lost: - why is grub still giving me the option to boot the 4.4 kernel, although it's uninstalled? - why does 5.4 fail to process the volume group and panic? - why does 4.15 complain about the vg but still manages to start? (the only good thing so far) - what should I do to make 5.4 (and updated kernels in the future) work on this system? - why does dns does not fall back to 8.8.8.8 or something if the local dns got broken by the update (yeah, that's another issue - point me in the right direction or I'll search for that once the kernel/vg foo is fixed) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lvm2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1887964 Title: VG unavailable after upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 Cannot process volume group vg01 Volume group "vg01" not found Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in lvm2 source package in Focal: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading a laptop configured with LVM from 18.04 to 20.04 the volume group is no longer found.

After more testing, it seems the file is not read because the line in /etc/crypttab doesn't have end of line.

Small update. After several tests, I found that if I duplicate the encrypted block device configuration line in /etc/crypttab, the upgrade is successful. I.e., in my case: nvme0n1p3_crypt UUID=c9ffc13a-cad1-49a2-83eb-fb9002b3ebff none luks changes to nvme0n1p3_crypt UUID=c9ffc13a-cad1-49a2-83eb-fb9002b3ebff none luks nvme0n1p3_crypt UUID=c9ffc13a-cad1-49a2-83eb-fb9002b3ebff none luks I haven't tested if simply updating the timestamp on the file also does the trick. Note: if doing this after the upgrade, it requires to re-generate initramfs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lvm2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1887964 Title: VG unavailable after upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 Cannot process volume group vg01 Volume group "vg01" not found Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in lvm2 source package in Focal: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading a laptop configured with LVM from 18.04 to 20.04 the volume group is no longer found.
