Hi,
I work on cloud platforms and linux. I need some guidance with an issue
observed with LVM.
How to forcefully kill a running lvm command like lvcreate ? I tried using
kill -9 but it is not killing it. Only a reboot seems to does the trick.
How to forcefully kill the lvcreate process or for that matter any running
lvm commands ?
Also how to check the progress of an lvm command like lvcreate or lvremove ?
Thanks
Kumar

Hi
1. lvm2 should not freeze - it would be some horrible bug.
2. You can't kill any userspace app which is blocked in an uninterruptible
kernel function - kill always wait till it gets to signal handler (i.e. you
are opening&reading suspended device might be one such operation)
3. You need to tell us more about what you are doing - as without this there
is no way to give meaningful help.
Regards
Zdenek

Check `dmsetup udevcookies` output. lvcreate may be waiting for udev
process which timed out - check the syslog. You can forcefully complete a
transaction by `dmsetup udevcomplete <cookie>`
