Hi All, I am using DRBD( version: 8.0.5). I want to use LVM over DRBD. I am facing some problem after DRBD configuration. For configuration I have used physical disks i.e. /dev/sdb (on local) and /dev/sdc (on remote). The configuration was successful. But I want to create VG and LV on this DRBD device (/dev/drbd0). I have made changes in lvm.conf. I have changed the LVM filter (*filter = [ "a|sd.*|", "a/drbd.*/", "r|.*|"]*) to accept the DRBD devices. Then I performed pvcreate and vgcreate. *PVCreate:* [root at host_1 ~]# pvcreate /dev/drbd0 Physical volume "/dev/drbd0" successfully created *VGCreate:* [root at host_1 ~]# vgcreate VG1 /dev/drbd0 Found duplicate PV Z7LP9jIE8dTQNae9mDTAJDuDABKwex5v: using /dev/sdb not /dev/drbd0 Found duplicate PV Z7LP9jIE8dTQNae9mDTAJDuDABKwex5v: using /dev/drbd0 not /dev/sdb Found duplicate PV Z7LP9jIE8dTQNae9mDTAJDuDABKwex5v: using /dev/sdb not /dev/drbd0 Found duplicate PV Z7LP9jIE8dTQNae9mDTAJDuDABKwex5v: using /dev/drbd0 not /dev/sdb Volume group "VG1" successfully created LVCreaet: [root at host_1~]# lvcreate -n lv1 -L 1G VG1 Found duplicate PV Z7LP9jIE8dTQNae9mDTAJDuDABKwex5v: using /dev/sdb not /dev/drbd0 device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument Failed to activate new LV. It is giving this error. I am unable to create LV on this DRBD device. Please help me.
