1) Check kernel message log for any device-mapper errors.

2) Confirm you are using userspace libdevmapper & LVM2 from the 
last tarballs we released.
 
3) If there are no kernel errors and you are using the latest userspace
code, then please log to file (see below, as mentioned in WHATS_NEW) and
send me the log file.  [Clear the log file, then run a 'vgscan' followed
by the troublesome 'vgchange -ay'.]

e.g. config file section:
  log {
          file="/tmp/lvm2.log"
          level=7
          activation=1
  }

Please also send the output of 'lvm version', 'ls -la /dev/mapper' and a 
copy of the current volume group backup. (e.g. generate with
'vgcfgbackup').
