Description of problem:
Installing RHEL 7.3 over 6.7GA, results in error message and quitting install.

It seems like the 7.3 install can't handle the LVM VG from 6.7 and chokes on install.

Once the VG is manually removed, the 7.3 install will continue and not error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-6.7-20150702.0
RHEL-7.3-20160502.n.0

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install 6.7GA
2. Install 7.3
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

I am putting Regression in the "Keywords" since I am installing RHEL 7.1 now and it has no bug that is seen in RHEL 7.3.
Comment 3 David Lehman 2016-08-16 15:15:27 UTC 
What exactly happens when you run an installation over the problematic lvm layout using 7.1? How about 7.2?
Comment 4 David Lehman 2016-08-16 15:19:39 UTC 
It would also be useful if you could run the following commands in the installer environment (after the failure has occurred) and attach the output files:

  lsblk >/tmp/lsblk.out

  udevadm --export-db >/tmp/udevdb


Thanks.
Comment 5 David Lehman 2016-08-16 15:20:23 UTC 
That udevadm command should have been:

  udevadm info --export-db >/tmp/udevdb
Comment 6 Bill Sanford 2016-08-24 19:37:26 UTC 
I have retested RHEL-6.7-20160427.1 to RHEL-7.3-20160817.1 and will verify this bug to be closed since this worked.
