RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: lvm2-2.02.109-2.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: An incorrect check checking the cluster status of non-clustered snapshot origin LV before local deactivation (-aln). Consequence: There was an incorrect error message issued: "Cannot deactivate remotely exclusive device locally." (newer versions) or just "Cannot deactivate <lv name> locally." (older versions) if the snapshot origin LV was non-clustered, already deactivated and we tried to deactivate it locally (-aln). Fix: The check done before local deactivation was fixed to properly check only clustered LVs. Result: The incorrect error message "Cannot deactivate ... locally" is no longer displayed.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2014:1387 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE lvm2 bug fix and enhancement update 2014-10-14 01:39:47 UTC

Description Nenad Peric 2014-07-30 09:23:17 UTC 
Description of problem:

When trying to deactivate a LV which is currently inactive on a single hsoted server (not clustered environment), the error displayed is ambiguous. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

lvm2-2.02.108-1.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:

[root@tardis-01 ~]# lvchange -aln multi/snap_of_simple
Change of snapshot snap_of_simple will also change its origin simple. Proceed? [y/n]: y
  Cannot deactivate remotely exclusive device locally.


Actual results:

LVM complains that it cannot deactivate REMOTELY exclusive device when there is not remote server existing. It is confusing. 

Expected results:

LVM should report that the mentioned LV is already inactive and thus cannot be deactivated again.
Comment 2 Peter Rajnoha 2014-08-07 14:49:41 UTC 
Just missing check whether the VG is clustered or not - the check doesn't make sense in case it's not clustered. Patched with:

Comment 5 Nenad Peric 2014-08-20 12:08:13 UTC 
[root@tardis-01 ~]# lvchange -aln new_vg/snap_of_simple
Change of snapshot snap_of_simple will also change its origin simple. Proceed? [y/n]: y
