Dev mapper FC5 system-config-lvm

[James Olson]

 Hi Robert,
I would try replacing the filter command in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf:
    # By default we accept every block device:
    filter = [ "a/.*/" ]
change it to something like:
filter = [ "r|/dev/hde|", "r|/dev/hdf|", "r|/dev/hdg|", "a/.*/" ]

where in my case the dmraid drives are /dev/hde hdf and hdg, replace those lines with your dmraid drives.  After you edit the file you should issue a vgscan command with no parameters to update the /etc/lvm/.cache file also.
