Hello List,
I have encountered an error with vgs command.
How to reproduce.
(1) Initialize the PV.
# pvcreate /dev/cciss/c0d3p3
(2) Create VG
# vgcreate vg01 /dev/cciss/c0d3p3
(3) Use vgs command and see result code.
# vgs /dev/cciss/c0d3p3
Invalid volume group name: cciss/c0d3p3
# echo $?
0
The result code should be none zero value.
One of a script rely on this result code, and it failed to work
because of this bug.
I have found this bug on RHEL5 (which uses lvm2.02.40-6) and
I have checked out WHATS_NEW between 2.02-40 to 49,
so far no similar symptom.
/dev/cciss is pointed HP Smart Array, FYI.
Regards,
Masanari
