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.

Description Marian Csontos 2013-05-24 10:50:58 UTC 
Description of problem:

    May 24 04:00:31 zaphodc1-node03 qarshd[2686]: Running cmdline: lvconvert --mirrorlog core -m 1 centipede/centi_base /dev/vdc1
    May 24 04:00:31 zaphodc1-node03 kernel: [  110.731370] device-mapper: dm-log-userspace: version 1.1.0 loaded

After 15 seconds it times out and retries:

    May 24 04:00:46 zaphodc1-node03 kernel: [  125.798115] device-mapper: dm-log-userspace: [IFDjvUNL] Request timed out: [1/0] - retrying

But the log is already created, and instead of raising error goes into infinite cycle:

    May 24 04:00:46 zaphodc1-node03 cmirrord[2458]: [IFDjvUNL/18446612133002470656u] Log already exists, unable to create.
    May 24 04:00:46 zaphodc1-node03 cmirrord[2458]: Failed to create cluster log (LVM-4lLfMUwq3Pb3X0dNEPVYnNrGEQngSJ3eO3p3hq1dT3r361odF5qRgHMSIFDjvUNL)
    May 24 04:00:46 zaphodc1-node03 cmirrord[2458]: argv[0] = clustered-core
    May 24 04:00:46 zaphodc1-node03 cmirrord[2458]: argv[1] = 1024

Nothing on the console except the above kernel messages.

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

kernel-3.9.0-0.55.el7.x86_64
lvm2-2.02.99-0.36.el7.x86_64
dlm-4.0.1-1.el7.x86_64
corosync-2.3.0-3.el7.x86_64
pcs-0.9.41-1.el7.x86_64
pacemaker-1.1.10-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a mirror: either a new one or lvconvert (or pvmove)

Actual results:
- cluster and lvm hangs

Expected results:
- either the mirror should be created or error risen in finite time

Additional info:

It may look like another instance of Bug 948073, except selinux is not involved:

    [20130523-104957] zaphodc1-node03: lvcreate -m 4 -n cascading_splits -L 300M split_image

    [20130523-105558]   Error locking on node 3: Command timed out

I will gather more logs.
Comment 1 Marian Csontos 2013-05-28 07:01:35 UTC 
Actually it may be selinux related. After turning it off the test is passing.
Will switch to permissive mode and upload AVCs.
Comment 2 Marian Csontos 2013-05-29 13:33:59 UTC 
After all it IS related to selinux, just my selinux-fu is weak.
Following suggests it is a duplicate of Bug 948073. Closing as such.
