You can remove the cluster flag from a VG with the following command

vgchange -cn <vg> --config 'global {locking_type = 0}'


If you're amenable it would be helpful to try and debug this. Can you add

CLVMDOPTS="-d2"

to the file /etc/sysconfig/cluster


and post the clvmd parts of system to me please.
