volume_list = [ "vg_pdcpicpl01", "@PDC-PIC-PL-01" ] where my vg_pdcpicpl01 is Volume group rather than logical volume. This is my root volume . In example I saw that I have to specify only VG of root . Can you help me where I am wrong ?

Also make sure it goes in the 'activation' section - there should be a commented-out example you can use as a template in the default lvm.conf: # If volume_list is defined, each LV is only activated if there is a # match against the list. # "vgname" and "vgname/lvname" are matched exactly. # "@tag" matches any tag set in the LV or VG. # "@*" matches if any tag defined on the host is set in the LV or VG # # volume_list = [ "vg1", "vg2/lvol1", "@tag1", "@*" ] Regards, Bryn. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAlByri8ACgkQ6YSQoMYUY94ZNgCeL/ectFyPgippkiQVEYTPWpn7 lP0AoIls3TalqQZgQ0M5fxJppFrUnjVK =AsGP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
