Sorry, but nope.



# vdsm-tool configure --force

Checking configuration status...

Current revision of multipath.conf detected, preserving
libvirt is already configured for vdsm
SUCCESS: ssl configured to true. No conflicts

Running configure...
Reconfiguration of sebool is done.
Reconfiguration of libvirt is done.

Done configuring modules to VDSM.

# grep use_lvmetad /etc/lvm/lvm.conf |grep -v '#'
	use_lvmetad = 1
