I'd guess that lvm was not built with lvmlockd support, in which case you
would need to rebuild it with one or both of --enable-lockd-sanlock,
--enable-lockd-dlm (and I'm going to rename those options to be "lvmlockd"
in a minute.)
Thank you David !
Would you consider the use of lvmlockd + sanlock as "production ready" ?
My goal here is to replace an existing cluster of 5 nodes using clvmd + dlm + corosync to access a shared VG of 6 TB containing around 300 LVs.
The current solution is working fine but I find using dlm + corosync "just" for locking a bit overkill.

Charles
