Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aoetools

I have two Ubuntu 10.4.1 LTS servers installed with the aoetools, vblade
and vblade-persist packages added to both.

I have set up LVM partitions on both machines that are being exported
using vblade-persist, using various major and minor numbers.  I'm then
using aoetools on each machine to view the vblades on the other one.

What I found interesting was that although I could export partition
targets using any minor number (it is reported that one could use
between 0 and 255), I found that on the initiator machine, aoe-stat only
reports block devices if the minor number is between 0 and 15.

What was strange was that other vblades with minor numbers > 15 (e.g.
16, 19, 20, 99 etc) could be viewed correctly on the initiator machine
using aoeping.  However aoe-stat refused to acknowledge their existence,
even after forcing an aoe-discover.

I was expecting the aoe initiator to be able to view any minor number on
the vblade target.

I am using the following packages

aoetools 30-3ubuntu1
vblade 20-1ubuntu1
vblade-persist 0.6-2

on the 2.6.32.27-generic kernel.
