boot.log:[ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-mapper-vmsrvg\x2dvmsrlv.device. #291

Closed tomkcpr closed 5 years ago

tomkcpr commented 5 years ago

Created storage as follows:

pvcreate /dev/sdb --config global{metadata_read_only=0}
vgcreate vmsrvg /dev/sdb --config global{metadata_read_only=0}
lvcreate -L 128G -n vmsrlv vmsrvg --config global{metadata_read_only=0}
mkfs.xfs /dev/vmsrvg/vmsrlv
xe sr-create content-type=user device-config:device=/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-pirJM0blfRvI8f65frH3fyN21jA2dqGBQxYeS2RpmAG2gieD7TpaCObO2a1mwHdw host-uuid=c133b4f5-61ab-4f82-b517-854e9277cfcd  name-label="LVM /dev/sdb" shared=false type=lvm

This works and is visible in the XCP-ng Center 8.0.1. Until reboot when this is seen:

boot.log:[ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-mapper-vmsrvg\x2dvmsrlv.device.

And the volume doesn't mount. Any reason why?

Followed page here to create it:

It's not meant to be created like that. You should pass directly a physical device to your SR create: no need to create any pv/vg/lv before. I strongly suggest that you use Xen Orchestra to create your SR, you can't make this mistake.

Also, please try to avoid filling the bug tracker with "usage" requests, the forum is a better place for that (I'm trying to "preserve" XCP-ng developer time on identified bugs here)

Apologies. Thought for a moment this might be a bug. Feel free to delete this.
