Hi, I've been experiencing hangs with clvmd (and all associated commands: lvs, vgdsplay, ect) on a 3 node cluster. I am using cman and clvmd to create clustered lvs from a san backend. I recently upgraded from 5.2 to 5.3 because occasionally commands began to hang, and would not work until I rebooted either 1 or 2 of the nodes, and there seemed to be several fixes in 5.3. These are the versions of cman and lvm2-cluster I am using. I'm using the lvm2-cluster from centos, rather than redhat. [root@cluster6 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga) [root@cluster6 ~]# rpm -qa cman cman-2.0.98-1.el5_3.4 [root@cluster6 ~]# rpm -qa lvm2-cluster lvm2-cluster-2.02.40-7.el5 <- from centos packages and this is what nodes there are: [root@cluster6 ~]# cman_tool nodes Node Sts Inc Joined Name 1 M 2336 2009-08-04 14:39:42 cluster7 2 M 2336 2009-08-04 14:39:42 cluster5 3 M 2332 2009-08-04 14:39:19 cluster6 [root@cluster6 ~]# cman_tool services type level name id state fence 0 default 00010003 none [1 2 3] dlm 1 clvmd 00020003 none [1 2 3] and this is what's hanging after "service clvmd start" 7056 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /usr/sbin/vgscan it just sits there forever, and I can't run any "lvm" type commands. If I kill it the clvmd init script moves onto vgchange -ayl which also hangs. Any thoughts? Is there some kind of human error misconfiguration that could be going on here?
