Is this the same behaviour as before?

I see /dev/VolGroup/lv_images are still root:root.
Please chown 36:36 as well.

Please state the all the chown you tried.




Possibly a starting point for automating LVM device permissions setting isĀ 

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Logical_Volume_Manager_Administration/udev_device_manager.html

and in particular the possibility to add, underĀ /lib/udev/rules, a customized file based on the one found in /usr/share/doc/device-mapper/12-dm-permissions.rules

Not tried myself though...
