vzdump: unable to detect lvm volume group, using 'suspend' mode

[liane]

Hi,

I had this message on one box, despite the fact that LVM2 is correctly installed and running.

Turn out this box is running a french locale, and numbers are comma separated, not point separated, so lvs output looks like:

# lvs
  LV     VG   Attr   LSize   Origin Snap%  Move Log Copy%  Convert
  backup lvm1 -wi-ao 100,00G                                      
  swap   lvm1 -wi-ao   6,00G                                      
  vz     lvm1 -wi-ao 200,00G

making the regex in the get_lvm_mapping function (line 510 in /usr/sbin/vzdump) miss the line.

changing the regex to the following line fixed the problem for me:

if ($line =~ m|^\s*(\S+):(\S+):(\d+([\.,]\d+))M$|) {

of course, setting the locale back to english should also fix the problem...
