Re: Logical Volume creation while MC Serviceguard is running
I beleive you can just add a logical volume without a problem using standard LVM, that is it will not be part of the cluster. Say for a temporary Lvol. Now if you want it to be permanent or a part of the cluster it would be more in depth and require changes to the cluster configuration.

Re: Logical Volume creation while MC Serviceguard is running
Attached is the procedure that we use for adding a VG to an MCSG cluster. I beleive if you pick up with the lvcreate command it should work just fine. I beleive these changes can be made with the cluster up and running, but we are very conservative here and do it with everything down.

Re: Logical Volume creation while MC Serviceguard is running
You can add a logical volume with the cluster and packages running. I've done it a bunch of times. Just be sure to add an entry for the new LV/filesystem in your package control file, and push the control file to any other nodes that need it. As mentioned, you'll also need to do a vgexport on the node you add the LV to, creating a map file and copying it to the other nodes where you'll need to do a vgimport to pick up the new lvol that you added. Otherwise the other nodes won't know about it and you'll get a nasty suprise the next time you try to failover. Oops! Done that more than once also. :)

SolutionWhat I tend to do is
1 - create the LVs normally using lvcreate
2 - edit the /etc/cmcluster/
3 - note the minor number of the new lvol
4a - on the stand-by/other systems do
mknod /dev/
mknod /dev/
4b - Alternatively tar cvf - /dev/
The above has one drawback that I believe still exists with the vgexport & vgimport methods. It is a good idea to do a vgchange -a r
