I am attempting to create a simple volume on a soft raid 1 device (/dev/md1) on a gentoo linux box running 2.6.1. The pvcreate seems to go fine but when I then attempt to create the volume group I get an odd error about duplicate PV's. It seems as if the code is sometimes treating the device as a single device and sometimes seeing the underlying disks. Any help would be appreciated.
either modify /etc/lvm/lvm.conf in order to ignore the devices that are part of your md array or look at the patch i posted to this list under the subject: "[patch] lvm2 and md component devices"
