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.
