[Evms-devel] EVMS bug - anybody working to fix bugs any more?

[Carruth, R. <Rus...@sm...>]

We've discovered an unpleasant bug in EVMS.

Randomly it will decide that there is a raid array 255 present when we
have not created such a beast.  It has even been known to create
lower-numbered ones as well (254, 253, etc).

Evms says its command line interpreter version 2.5.3

I looked at the fix logs for 2.5.4 and 2.5.5, and do not see any
reference to this, other than something in an email from Mike Tran on
the devel list in 2006 about how evms 'handles the conflict by assigning
late arriving MD regions starting at 255 downward' (or something like
that).

But I *have* (supposedly) no late-arriving MD regions!  Where is evms
getting the idea that such a thing exists???

Has anyone seen this?  Or have any clue what I'm talking about?

Has it been fixed?

Thanks!
