i cannot use LVM, after activating HP SecurePath (failover and load balancing driver). lvmdiskscan does not see the devices:
kappco1:~ # lvmdiskscan lvmdiskscan -- reading all disks / partitions (this may take a while...) lvmdiskscan -- /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 [ 1 GB] Primary [0x82] lvmdiskscan -- /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 [ 15.95 GB] Primary LINUX native partition [0x83] lvmdiskscan -- 1 disk lvmdiskscan -- 0 whole disks lvmdiskscan -- 0 loop devices lvmdiskscan -- 0 multiple devices lvmdiskscan -- 0 network block devices lvmdiskscan -- 2 partitions lvmdiskscan -- 0 LVM physical volume partitions
but they exist: kappco1:~ # fdisk -l /dev/sda /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 262144 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 262144 268435440 5 Extended /dev/sda5 1 262144 268435424 8e Linux LVM
Disk /dev/sdb: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 262144 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 bytes

i can put a reiserFS on a single partition and use it: kappco1:~ # df -l Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 16723404 2833480 13889924 17% / shmfs 1034212 0 1034212 0% /dev/shm /dev/sda5 268427228 2841496 265585732 2% /data
what is wrong?
