Hi,
[root at arm misiek]# rpm -q lvm2
lvm2-2.00.15-1
[root at arm misiek]# /sbin/vgscan
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
No volume groups found
[root at arm misiek]# echo $?
5
./lib/commands/errors.h:#define ECMD_FAILED 5
why it returns non-zero code? When there is no volume groups then it's normal
to find zero of them and it's not failure.
This causes problems in init scripts.
