Hi All,

I've got a setup with with ovirt and an equallogic iscsi. Im using the dell hit drivers. Install all good, after a reboot the storage won't come up. From the vdsm logs i can see the volume groups can't be found. in the lvm vgs command the following filter is used: [ '\''r|.*|'\'' ] .
If I change the LVMCONF_TEMPLATE in /usr/share/vdsm/storage/lvm.py and add the filter [ "a|^/dev/eql/ovirt.*|" ], the volume group is found and storage will be attached.

How is the lvm filter constructed? And how can i make sure my volume groups are found without editing /usr/share/vdsm/storage/lvm.py?
