Hi,
thanks for your response Jonathan, but I want to share the VGs between
the hosts. So I hoped that there is something like this functionality:
-> "vgimport VG" writes some kind of hostid (system_id?) in the metadata
-> other hosts can´t access the VG
-> "vgdeport VG" removes the ID, so anyone else can import the VG
My C knowledge isn´t very good, but the sources seem to include a
functionality like the one mentioned above.
Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi,
i´m new to LVM2 and wondering if it´s possible to restrict access to a
Volume Group to a single server (e.g. like under vxvm (vxdg
import/deport)).
If I import a VG by using vgimport it is still possible to access the
VG
on another node in a shared SAN environment. Can I prevent this
somehow?
I´m using lvm2-2.01.14-3.6 on servers running SuSE SLES9 SP3 x86_64.
You can use tags to achieve this, or you can specify specific volume
groups and logical volumes in lvm.conf under "volume_list".
