Description of problem: I saw some closed bugs similar to this (having the same messages) for mkinitrd and init, but I only needed to attempt snapshot creations inorder to see the messages this time. [root@link-08 bin]# lvcreate -s /dev/snapper/origin -L 50M File descriptor 3 left open File descriptor 4 left open Rounding up size to full physical extent 52.00 MB Logical volume "lvol2" created Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@link-08 bin]# rpm -q lvm2 lvm2-2.02.01-1.3.RHEL4 [root@link-08 bin]# rpm -q lvm2-cluster lvm2-cluster-2.02.01-1.2.RHEL4 How reproducible: everytime
Run 'lsof' against your shell process and see where those file descriptors 3 and 4 are pointing.
This was a legitimate bug. If it is just going to be closed since I haven't been able to reproduce it, close it WORKSFORME, not NOTABUG.
It's not a bug in lvm2 - the problem lies elsewhere. The warning message tells you that something else run by a previous process forgot to close some file desciptors and they got inherited by lvm2. For WORKSFORME you'd need to track down what didn't close its file descriptors and change the component to that from lvm2.
