what happens if you remove the '--test' from your command?

HI

I'm running into some problems with lvm on redhat.
I'm trying to create a snapshot but gives always a error
" Aborting. Failed to activate snapshot exception store."

Also when I try to create a new volume and create new logical volumes I get the same error

This is the output of the lvcreate -s and vgdisplay
Any ideas/hints are apreciated

Thanks
