Subject: [linux-lvm] LVM complains about /etc/lvm/cache/.cache it created
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2019 01:36:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <d21ca2aa-5d34-2938-2f8a-622f7aa5403d@gentoo.org> (raw)
Hi,
while reworking how we activate LVM in Gentoo's genkernel initramfs init
script, I tested some commands at boot in the following order:
# /sbin/lvm vgscan
# /sbin/lvm vgchange -ay --sysinit
# /sbin/lvm vgmknodes --ignorelockingfailure --verbose
The last command (vgmknodes) will output
> Failed to load existing device cache from /etc/lvm/cache/.cache
I can delete this file (/etc/lvm/cache/.cache), re-run the command twice
and on the second call, after cache file was recreated by LVM, the error
is back.
So this looks like LVM is creating a cache it cannot use by itself?!
# lvm version
LVM version: 2.02.185(2) (2019-05-13)
