Package: sanlock Version: 3.3.0-2.2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
After installing sanlock and configuring lvm2 to use it, I attempted to create a volume group and receive the following error: charlie@kvm01:~$ sudo vgcreate --shared vg1 /dev/sdb Enabling sanlock global lock Logical volume "lvmlock" created. VG vg1 init failed: invalid parameters for sanlock Failed to initialize lock args for lock type sanlock Volume group "vg1" successfully removed The log shows the following: Jan 12 14:29:30 kvm01 lvmlockd[48237]: 1515767370 S lvm_vg1 init_vg_san sanlock error -19 trying to get align size of /dev/mapper/vg1-lvmlock Jan 12 14:29:30 kvm01 sanlock[48461]: 2018-01-12 14:29:30+0000 269036 [48464]: open error -13 /dev/mapper/vg1-lvmlock After some investigation, I discovered that the sanlock user is not a member of the disk group by default, causing the error above. This can be resolved by the user by adding the sanlock user to the disk group and restarting sanlock. I believe that this step should be automated by default.
