I have the same issue.  I've got a volume group spread across 2 disks 
and when I try to activate that volgroup I get the following:

<snip>
[root@hetfield mapper]# vgchange -ay VolGroup02
   device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: Invalid argument
   Couldn't load device 'VolGroup02-DVD'.
   1 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup02" now active
<snip>

and the relevant portion of the /var/log/messages has:

<snip>
Oct 17 08:45:07 hetfield kernel: device-mapper: dm-linear: Device lookup 
failed
Oct 17 08:45:07 hetfield kernel: device-mapper: error adding target to table
<snip>

My other two volgroups are working fine.  It's just this third one that 
has problems.

I did quite a bit of googling yesterday, but I didn't come up with much 
although I have to confess that I know jack about the device mapper...

Regards,

Pat
