Hi,
i've just solved the problem :-P
up2date has changed my lvm.conf ....
I'm new to Centos, and i didnt know that it saves a copy of the replaced
file ....
im my case it was the lvm.conf.
The new file (called "bad" :-) ) uses type 2 of locking_type ....
below is a short version (cutting the comments and line numbers) of a
diff between both files ....
(root@backupsrv) lvm # diff -ru lvm.conf lvm.conf.bad
+ library_dir = "/usr/lib"
+ locking_library = "liblvm2clusterlock.so"
- locking_type = 1
+ locking_type = 2
Thanks anyway,
Nick
