Noticed that on bootup of a cluster node usings cLVM and GFS2 I see the following:
Scanning logical volumes connect() failed on local socket: Connection refused WARNING: Falling back to local file-based locking. Volume Groups with the clustered attribute will be inaccessible. Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2 Activating logical volumes connect() failed on local socket: Connection refused WARNING: Falling back to local file-based locking. Volume Groups with the clustered attribute will be inaccessible. 2 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" now active VolGroup00 is a vg on the local disk and is not shared. Later, cluster services start (including clvmd) and the clustered volumes and associated filesystems come up fine. I'm assuming the errors above are because clvmd isn't running. Can they be safely ignored? Any way to configure so my clustered volumes aren't scanned until after clvmd starts? I know I can edit filter settings in lvm.conf, but don't see any way to specify that some block devices should be skipped until clvmd is running.
