I had to also install the dlm package in order for step 2 to create a working resource.

Verified. As it stands, the dlm package can't be a dependency of the lvm2-lockd package AFAIK. lvm2-lockd and dlm-lib are in AppStream, while dlm is in Resilient Storage.

Can we check with PM on whether this is the desired placement?

Comment 2 Steven J. Levine 2019-03-01 15:27:54 UTC

I had this exchange with Chris Feist:

Lets add dlm to that yum install line so it now reads:
# yum install lvm2-lockd gfs2-utils dlm

I'm verifying that with Dave, but I think we can go with that for now.

So for now it appears to be the desired placement and I'm adding it to the procedure.

Comment 3 Steven J. Levine 2019-03-01 15:37:49 UTC

I asked Chris Feist if that package placement is desired.  I'll update the docs if that changes, but for now I specify which channel each of the three packages is in.
