Comment 7 Peter Rajnoha 2014-04-09 11:16:20 UTC 
Is this still reproducible with latest lvm2 package? (lvm2-2.02.98-15.fc19)
Or even in Fedora 20 (if you already upgraded in the meantime)?

If yes, could you please edit /lib/systemd/system/lvm2-monitor.service and add -vvvv option (verbose log) to the vgchange --monitor y command on the ExecStart line like this:

   ExecStart=/usr/sbin/lvm vgchange --monitor y -vvvv

The reboot the machine and paste the log here please:

   systemctl status -l -n 100000 lvm2-monitor.service

Thanks.
Comment 8 Himanshu Garg 2014-06-09 13:33:33 UTC 
Problem is not there in Fedora 20 with lvm2-2.02.103-3.fc20.x86_64

Thanks.

OK, I'm marking closed/nextrelease then. If the problem appears again, feel free to reopen this report.
