Hi, I've recently started getting device mapper errors that I don't understand while creating a LVM snapshot. I think I blew my chance at asking the linux-lvm list (list archives show my blunder), but this also seems like a device mapper issue. Apologies in advance if this is the wrong list for such a question... I'm not really sure whom to ask. Here are the errors. Anyone know what's going on? lvcreate --snapshot --name vm1optsnap --size 10G /dev/vg0/vm1opt /dev/dm-9: stat failed: No such file or directory Path /dev/dm-9 no longer valid for device(253,9) Aborting - please provide new pathname for what used to be /dev/dm-9 /dev/dm-10: stat failed: No such file or directory Path /dev/dm-10 no longer valid for device(253,10) Aborting - please provide new pathname for what used to be /dev/dm-10 /dev/dm-11: stat failed: No such file or directory Path /dev/dm-11 no longer valid for device(253,11) Aborting - please provide new pathname for what used to be /dev/dm-11 Logical volume "vm1optsnap" created Kernel: 2.6.9-42.0.10.ELsmp i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux LVM2: lvm2-2.02.21-5.el4 Device-mapper: device-mapper-1.02.17-3.0.1.el4 Thanks for any suggestions or pointers, Dane -- Dane Miller Systems Administartor Greatschools, Inc http://www.greatschools.net -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
