When I create a new LVM volume on Scientific Linux 4 (RHEL4-compatible), a
new entry isn't created in /dev, meaning that I can't access the volume
although it exists.
Creation succeeds:
[root@tg23 mapper]# /usr/sbin//lvcreate -s '-L1024M' -n
'/dev/xenvg/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249' /dev/xenvg/gridmon
Logical volume "gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249" created
Mount fails:
[root@tg23 mapper]# mount '/dev/xenvg/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249'
'/mnt/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249'
mount: special device /dev/xenvg/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249 does not exist
dev entry doesn't exist:
[root@tg23 mapper]# ls /dev/xenvg/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249
ls: /dev/xenvg/gridmon_gridmon023__1147860249: No such file or directory
These were created before an upgrade from RH9:
[root@tg23 mapper]# ls /dev/xenvg/
gridgate_gridgate_wit_ie__1127224256 gridmon_gridmon__swap
sl304_1 wnclonetest

gridmon_gridmon_it-tallaght_ie__swap gridui_gridui_dit_ie__swap
ttyl2base
gridmon_gridmon_scg_nuigalway_ie__swap rh9server
wnclonecagnode89
I have the following error in /var/log/messages:
May 17 12:47:10 tg23 /sbin/hotplug: no runnable /etc/hotplug/block.agent
is installed
I have the default hotplug package installed and can't find any source for
a hotplug block.agent.
Any ideas?
Stephen
