Notes on using a volume manager
Note the following when using a volume manager:
•
Although disk partitioning and system backup functions are supported for
disks in a YaST2 system, the combination of YaST2 and LVM is not
supported.
•
When you execute an LVM-related command such as pvscan or vgscan, a
CD-ROM IOCTL command might be sent to each device in the OS. The
IOCTL is available only for SCSI devices. You do not need to enter
information for the IOCTL when installing HDLM because HDLM devices
are not SCSI devices. HDLM rejects the IOCTL request and assumes that
the IOCTL processing has failed. The error message (KAPL05023-E) is
output to the syslog, but HDLM operations are not affected.
