@Vincent Could you please attach the syslog associated with this fault? How reproducible is this?
Also I noticed that your lvm.conf is a little broken. scan = [ "/dev" ] ... filter = [ "r/block/", "r/disk/", "r|/dev/sd.*|", "a/.*/" ] Since the scan starts in /dev, that's the root of the search, specifying "r|/dev/sd.*|" won't match anything, instead you want "r|sd.*|". vgscan -vvv will show you the regexp working. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1020436/comments/23 ** Changed in: multipath-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032550 Title: [multipath] failed to get sysfs information To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1032550/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
