Error on Boot up: A start job is running for Activation of LVM2 logical volumes

[sector001]

I am getting this error on boot up.

Found volume group "pve" using metadata type lvm2
/sbin/modprobe failed: 1
Can't process LV pve/data: thin-pool target support missing from kernel?
Can't process LV /ve-vm-100-disk-1: thin target support missing from kernel?
Can't process LV /ve-vm-100-disk-2: thin target support missing from kernel?
Can't process LV /ve-vm-101-disk-1: thin target support missing from kernel?

A start job is running for Activation of LVM2 logical volumes...

I googled it and I found another thread with this same problem but there is not enough detail in that thread to tell me how to fix this problem.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

those are harmless (the early boot stages don't know how to handle LVM-thin, but they don't need to since only guest volumes are stored there).

the question is why does LV activation fail? boot some kind of rescue/live environment, and see if you can manually activate the 'pve' VG and its LVs. perhaps your LVM-thin metadata space is exhausted?

Sorry for being a noob but how would I manually activate the pve VG and LV? I'm still relatively new to Proxmox so I don't know the commands.

see the man pages of "vgchange" and "lvchange"

Hello,

we are just running into the same problem after updating from 4.4 to 5.2.

Is there a chance to get this fixed, or do we have to do a restore ?

Thanks for any help.

Greetings Marco.

I have the same problem here. Boot is stuck on "A job is running..." Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

The problem was that local-lvm get corrupted.
