Package: lvm2
Followup-For: Bug #315339
Nice to see the initial bug (of 2.01.12-1) being addressed so quickly.
However, using 2.01.12-2 gives me similar problems, while using lvm2
metadata. All vgdisplay commands complain about "Incorrect metadata area
header checksum" and trying to modify the LV partitions fails with
something like this:
Incorrect metadata area header checksum
Extending logical volume media to 28,50 GB
PV segment pe_alloc_count mismatch: 7 != 16
PV segment VG free_count mismatch: 12 != 3
Internal error: PV segments corrupted in siivet.
Downgrading to 2.01.04-5 makes these problems go away. Attached is my lvm2 config file.
