Re: select vg activation at startup

Hi:

Yes, absolutely. Configure:

# /sbin/lvmrc

There are comments within this file describing how to configure it.

Regards!

Re: select vg activation at startup

I would look at /etc/lvmrc.

In there you will see the configurable environment variable AUTO_VG_ACTIVATE

If you set that environment variable to 0 and then add lines to the function
custom_vg_activation()
you can automatically start a selection of VGs but leave the others.
To start some VGs, just use
vgchange -a y vgname
