<div class="gmail_quote">2008/11/19 Alan A <<a href="mailto:alan.zg@gmail.com">alan.zg@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I did. After running lvextend command 'clvmd -R' failed on node2. Then I fenced the node2 (fenmrdev02) and run the clvmd -R again, this time without problems. I tried lvextend again - I get the same problem, and again clvmd -R times out.</blockquote> </div> I have also encountered this problem several times, and although this list seems to recommend running clvmd -R it has in fact never helped the situation (I'm running centos 5.2). The only way I can solve this problem is by rebooting all nodes in the cluster and then extending the lv. Regards Mikko
