Package: lvm2
Version: 2.03.02-3
Severity: normal

  Hi,

  I just setup a config with most partitions encrypted.
To do this, I've :
- 1 partition not crypted that is the unique PV of the 'eyak-base' VG
  This VG contains the /boot partition in an LV
- 3 encrypted partitions that are the 3 PVs of another 'eyak' VG
  This VG contains several others partitions in their LV, in particular
  the root partition.

  At boot time (with systemd), lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service is usually (but
not always) marked as failed.
  lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service is linked to the not encrypted PV of 'eyak-base'

  The log says:
# journalctl -u lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service
[...]

  I'm under the impression that the LVM autoactivation is reported as failed
because the 'eyak' VG still have several LV not activated. However, regarding
device 259:2, this is the only device of a separate VG with only one LV
that is active ("1 logical volume(s) in volume group "eyak-init" now active).
So, for 259:2, it should be a success.
  i2TZKm-9KWX-iUEZ-rNu3-UsA9-EOtO-oAv0gy and 
4rrgqQ-kr5F-nYcz-iLFc-g1vo-571i-XqwoCV
are the UUID of pv3_decrypted and pv4_decrypted (see lsblk bellow) that
are probably not yet setup by systemd-cryptsetup@pv3_decrypted.service and
systemd-cryptsetup@pv4_decrypted.service at the time where 
lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service
initially runs. 

(Manually) Restarting the systemd unit marks it as a success:

# systemctl restart lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service
root@eyak:/home/vdanjean# journalctl -u lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service | tail

  In any case, the system boots and /boot is mounted. It is just that,
withtout restarting the unit, lvm2-pvscan@259:2.service keeps being
marked as 'failed'
