Hello folks, I have a script which issues an lvcreate to create a snapshot. The command returns with an exit code 5. The snapshot works, and seems to be fine otherwise, but what is the exitcode trying to tell me? I found documentation saying, "error getting status of logical volume" is the cause, but what does the really mean in this context? Here is the actual command being issued by the script: /usr/sbin/lvcreate -L 5G --snapshot -n /dev/USRAPPS/snap03 /dev/USRAPPS/db03 Any suggestions? I don't like to ignore non-zero exit codes. Yes, the source volume is mounted and active. -- Bill Ranck Blacksburg, Va. 540-231-3951 _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
