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: lvm2-2.02.95-6.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the vgreduce command failed with an internal error "Attempt to unlock unlocked VG" when it was executed with a non-existent VG. This was caused by improperly trying to unlock the VG at command exit which was not locked at that time since locking resources were cleaned up before during handling the error scenario itself. The fix provides a proper check so only locked VGs are unlocked at vgreduce command exit.

Description Zdenek Kabelac 2012-03-27 19:29:15 UTC 
Description of problem:

When vgreduce is executed with 'vg' which could not be read, 
tool takes a lock for such vg, but since it fails already internally
during vg_read, lock is unlocked inside error path already.
However vgreduce runs it's own unlock in error path as well,
giving out error message:

# vgreduce nvg /dev/loop1
Volume group "nvg" not found
Internal error: Attempt to unlock unlocked VG nvg.

Patch needs to test for success of vg_read and only in case
of success it may unlock vg later.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.02.95

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. vgreduce some-non-existant-vg  /dev/loop0
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
