David,

Thanks!

It works! I did as the following:

"""
sle15-c1-n1:~ # vgs
   Reading VG vg1 without a lock.
   VG  #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize  VFree
   vg1   1   1   0 wz--ns 19.97g 18.72g
sle15-c1-n1:~ # vgchange --lock-type none vg1
   Cannot access VG vg1 due to failed lock.
sle15-c1-n1:~ # vgchange --lock-type none --lockopt force vg1
Forcibly change VG lock type to none? [y/n]: y
