Hi all, Just upgraded a SLES10 DRBD setup with nested LVM to a SLES11SP1 one. DRBD refuses to activate the underlying LV because it is in use. Also I could not deactivate the VG. When investigating why not, it seemes that the LV's on top of DRBD are visible eventhough the VG on top of DRBD is not detected by vgscan. The filter rule in lvm.conf is: filter = ["a|/dev/sda5|", "a|drbd.*|", "r|.*|] which should find the lower level VG and all VG's on top of /dev/drbd* once they are there, but this filter seems to be disregarded and the PV's are seen anyway, keeping DRBD away from having it's resources started. Anyone knows how to taclke this? Thank you, B.
