This is probably not a good idea, but you can also turn off LVM2 locking with:
lvmconf --disable-clusteryou can turn LVM2 locking back on with:
lvmconf --enable-cluster --lockinglibdir /usr/lib --lockinglib liblvm2clusterlock.soThe lvmconf command edits /etc/lvm/lvm.conf.
The errors 'connect() failed on local socket: Connection refused' appear from LVM2 commands when clvmd is not running and lvm.conf is configured for a cluster.
I am not sure why the device name does not show up. After turning off locking, you could try to do a 'vgchange -ay' and hopefully it will appear.
