Therefore there are no mapped partitions in the /etc/lvm/.cache. Make sure your lvm.conf has filters for the disks associated with the dm device. Make sure you have run kpartx -a (to map dm partitions) then restart the clvm daemon (to populate the cache with the partitions) to check if this is the issue you have. This is an issue with RHEL4 U2. I haven't checked FC4. --Sean -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
