dear all,
i have a problem with clustered lvm storage and the "logical" storage driver, perhaps someone has a suggestion.
i have a clustered lvm (lvmlockd, not clvm) with 4 hosts running.
when i start the storage on a host it activates all volumes in the whole volume group. then i cannot start the storage on other hosts because all volumes are already activated on one host.
if i then deactivate all volumes in the started pool i can start the pool on other hosts. but then i have to manually activate the volume if i want to start the domain.
it would be great if the logical pool driver would only activate the volume of a domain at domain start and not on pool start.
does anybody have a workaround for this or any suggestions for me? do you think i should open an issue on it?
That certainly sounds like a worthwhile use case. Please note that opening an issue/bug does not guarantee that anybody will be motivated to pick it up any time soon.
