What are the recommendations for number of logical volumes in a HA-LVM volume group on Red Hat High Availability Clusters?

Issue

• When trying to move a service from CONGA interface, error clurgmgrd: [5522]: HA LVM requires Only one logical volume per volume group is seen in /var/log/messages file.
• Why am I not able to configure multiple Logical Volumes from single VG as cluster resources ? We are created 3 LV on 1 VG.
• Does Cluster support more than one LV on each VG ? How can I configure it?

clurgmgrd[5522]: <notice> Starting stopped service service:SVC_ORASOT 
clurgmgrd: [5522]: <err> HA LVM requires Only one logical volume per volume group.

• Can multiple LVM logical volumes from single VG be configured as cluster resources ?
• Can we configure multiple Volume Groups to be managed by the HA-LVM Cluster?
• How many logical-volumes can I have in one volume-group under HA-LVM?
• I want to use HA-LVM in my RHEL 5 cluster, but as I understand it, early versions of HA-LVM only permitted 1 logical-volume in the volume-group under HA-LVM control. My volume-groups have between 7 and 15 logical-volumes; would this work?

• Does RedHat have a recommendation regarding HA-LVM and the number of logical volumes per volume group?

  • Should we just have a 1 to 1 mapping for LUN-VG-LV? i.e.:

  LUN 1 ---> VolumeGroup01  ---> LogicalVolume01
  LUN 2 ---> VolumeGroup02  ---> LogicalVolume02
  LUN 3 ---> VolumeGroup03  ---> LogicalVolume03
  LUN 4 ---> VolumeGroup04  ---> LogicalVolume04
  LUN 5 ---> VolumeGroup05  ---> LogicalVolume05
  

  • Or should we have multiple LVs per VG? i.e.:

  LUN 1 ---> VolumeGroup01  ---> LogicalVolume01
  LUN 1 ---> VolumeGroup01  ---> LogicalVolume02
  LUN 1 ---> VolumeGroup01  ---> LogicalVolume03
  LUN 1 ---> VolumeGroup01  ---> LogicalVolume04
  LUN 2 ---> VolumeGroup02  ---> LogicalVolume05
