Check out: http://people.redhat.com/mchristi/iscsi/RHEL4/doc/readme I think the key here is to add the _netdev option in fstab for those filesystems over iSCSI, even using LVM. -Ross __ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

[CentOS] lvm with iscsi devices on boot
Hi All, My CentOS 5.1 server is using iSCSI attached disks connecting to a dual controller storage array. I have also configured multipathd to manage the multiple paths. Everything works well, and on boot the dev nodes are automatically created in /dev/mapper. On these devices, I have created logical volumes using lvm2. My problem is that lvm does not recognize these iscsi/multipath volumes on boot up. I need to manually run "vgchange -ay" and mount the logical volumes by hand. I tried running the vgchange and mount commands from /etc/rc.local, but that has no effect. I have verified that /etc/rc.local itself is executing correctly. What do I need to put in my boot up scripts so logical volumes in iscsi/multipathd devices are automatically recognized on boot? TIA! - Raja ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
