clvmd fails to start with "Unable to create DLM lockspace for CLVM: Transport endpoint is not connected' in RHEL 5 or 6
Issue
- After reboot, none of the nodes will mount the SAN gfs2 file systems. Need to restore entries in
/dev
for the file systems. - Even though I started
clvmd
, logical volumes are not found in/dev
and I can't mount GFS2 file systems - When I start
clvmd
I see "Transport endpoint is not connected"
