Bug 171157

So what's happening here is that devices are appearing/disappearing/changing
underneath the daemon and it's incapable of detecting and responding to this.

I configured a pair of disks, /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd, 1 from each SAN cabinet
into an MD mirror set
and presented that to CLVM2 as pv /dev/md7, created vg wav1_vg and created lv
wav1_v. I then caught
up with the fact that md devices aren/'t supported for GFS so I stripped it back
down and just
put /dev/sdc into the CLVM2 vg. That worked ok. I then went to the SAN and
expanded the size of
/dev/sdc from 1GB to 20GB. I found I had to remove it from CLVM2 again in order
to get the PV extents to
change. After fiddling with fdisk, partprobe, etc I finally got CLVM2 to
recognize the changed size and
re-created the lv. When CLVM2 tried to active it I got the internal error and
this was put in the
/var/log/messages file :
