When running the following LVM command:

lvcreate  -n new_20_SdHv  -L 96M new_20_SdDg

I get this error message:

error:Not activating new_20_SdDg/new_20_SdHv since it does not pass activation filter 
Failed to activate new LV.

I have checked that there is enough space. What could the problem be?

Do you want a cluster configuration on your server? Have you edited the variable volume_list in the file lvm.conf? Which is actually the value of the variable volume_list? – NoNoNo Jul 23 '12 at 9:46
