Hi there.
I'm trying to use thin provisionned LVM for som eguests, and I'm having
a problem.
Until now, I use LVM pool with success. Here's my pool definition:
<pool type='logical'>
<name>data</name>
<uuid>7f18e030-9d2d-805e-c65f-d12d0681b0a9</uuid>
<capacity unit='bytes'>0</capacity>
<allocation unit='bytes'>0</allocation>
<available unit='bytes'>0</available>
<source>
<name>data</name>
<format type='lvm2'/>
</source>
<target>
<path>/dev/data</path>
<permissions>
<mode>0700</mode>
<owner>-1</owner>
<group>-1</group>
</permissions>
</target>
</pool>
Everything is working, until I create a thin privisionned pool like this:
lvcreate --thin data/pool -L 50G
Now, as soon as this is created, I cannot refresh my pool from libvirt POV:
LANG=C_ALL virsh pool-refresh data
error: Failed to start pool sys
error: erreur interne Child process (/sbin/vgchange -aln vg_gerard) status
unexpected: exit status 5
If I remove this LV, everything is working again.
I'm using libvirt 0.9.10, the default one in CentOS 6.3 (x86_64).
Has anybody managed to get it working ?
Is this something fixed in more recent release ?
Regards, Daniel
