[Linux-cluster] How to turn off the cluster attribute of a lo cal volume

That did the trick Bob. I had to turn off clustering for lvmconf (lvmconf
--disable-cluster). After that, a vgchange -cn swapvg01 turned off the
clustering attribute. Thanx much!!

Thanks Bob, I will try that. I wonder how that bit got turned on using
standard local lvm commands? Interesting.

Hi Darrell, 

Glad to be of service! 
What you want to disable the clustering bit is:  vgchange -cn The answer
isn't "exactly" in the faq, but you can find something close
