Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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: lvm2-2.02.117-1.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Missing build dependency caused default value for global/thin_check_options lvm.conf option to be incorrectly set during build time. Consequence: Default value for global/thin_check_options missed "--clear-needs-check-flag" option. This caused thin LVs to be still marked as needing a check while it was not necessary. Fix: Proper build dependency has been added which causes proper default value for global/thin_check_options to be set. Result: Default value for global/thin_check_options now includes "--clear-needs-check-flag" option.

Comment 2 Marian Csontos 2015-01-21 12:53:02 UTC
This is a low impact change. Shall it go into 6.6.z?

Workaround: Thin-pool users on RHEL6.6 will likely want to add the command line option to lvm.conf.

Comment 4 Nenad Peric 2015-04-13 18:01:58 UTC
The default option found in the new lvm.conf is:

    # thin_check_options = [ "-q", "--clear-needs-check-flag" ]

commented out options are considered default. 


Marking this VERIFIED with:

lvm2-2.02.118-1.el6.x86_64
