If I understand you well, you have your root FS on a regular partition, thus you are not affected by this bug, as partitions don't need to be „activated”. You need to have your root FS on an LV to be affected. > if test -d /etc/lvm -a -x /sbin/vgscan -a -x /sbin/vgchange ; then > # Waiting for udev to settle > if [ "$LVM_DEVICE_TIMEOUT" -gt 0 ] ; then > echo "Waiting for udev to settle..." > /sbin/udevadm settle --timeout=$LVM_DEVICE_TIMEOUT > fi > echo "Scanning for LVM volume groups..." > /sbin/vgscan --mknodes > echo "Activating LVM volume groups..." > /sbin/vgchange -a y $LVM_VGS_ACTIVATED_ON_BOOT > mount -c -a -F Well, this is some interesting stuff. At first I thought you quoted it from an initrd script, but then I read you don't use an initrd. So where this script comes from? Did you write it, or is it shipped with the distro? Maybe the timeouts can be tweaked to allow a longer activation time, and it is also sane to only allow the root VG to activate at boot time and then activating the data VG later (probably asynchronously), after the root LV was successfully mounted. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396213 Title: LVM VG is not activated during system boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1396213/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
