Hi, I'm not sure if I've missed something in the discussion here or the manual. I have just been trying clvm on RHEL 6 for the first time. On the first node if I run: node1# lvcreate --size 1G --name lv00test cluvg00 node1# lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/cluvg00/lv00test' [1.00 GiB] inherit However on the second node I get: node2# lvscan inactive '/dev/cluvg00/lv00test' [1.00 GiB] inherit And (no surprise) I don't have /dev/cluvg00/lv00test. I can bring it to active on the second node with vgchange -ay , but that doesn't seem right (and is that persistent)? All I have changed is the locking in lvm.conf to 3 as ever. I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything else on RHEL 5, and it just appeared ACTIVE with no fuss on both nodes. Have I missed something?
