Not sure if the following scenarios should be mentioned in this bug or new bugs should be created (both similar but unique tracebacks included below in respective order): 1. A volume with that name already exists (perhaps on a different disk) 2. A volume group is assumed to exist when it does not config-changed Physical volume "/dev/loop0" successfully created config-changed A volume group called cinder-volumes already exists. config-changed Traceback (most recent call last): config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/config-changed", line 519, in config-changed hooks.execute(sys.argv) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/charmhelpers/core/hookenv.py", line 557, in execute config-changed self._hooks[hook_name]() config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/charmhelpers/core/host.py", line 312, in wrapped_f config-changed f(*args, **kwargs) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/config-changed", line 131, in config_changed config-changed conf['remove-missing']) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/cinder_utils.py", line 372, in configure_lvm_storage config-changed create_lvm_volume_group(volume_group, new_devices[0]) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/charmhelpers/contrib/storage/linux/lvm.py", line 105, in create_lvm_volume_group config-changed check_call(['vgcreate', volume_group, block_device]) config-changed File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 511, in check_call config-changed raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd) config-changed subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['vgcreate', u'cinder-volumes', '/dev/loop0']' returned non-zero exit status 5 config-changed Volume group "cinder-volumes" not found config-changed Traceback (most recent call last): config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/config-changed", line 519, in config-changed hooks.execute(sys.argv) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/charmhelpers/core/hookenv.py", line 557, in execute config-changed self._hooks[hook_name]() config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/charmhelpers/core/host.py", line 312, in wrapped_f config-changed f(*args, **kwargs) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/config-changed", line 131, in config_changed config-changed conf['remove-missing']) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/cinder_utils.py", line 377, in configure_lvm_storage config-changed reduce_lvm_volume_group_missing(volume_group) config-changed File "/var/lib/juju/agents/unit-cinder-0/charm/hooks/cinder_utils.py", line 313, in reduce_lvm_volume_group_missing config-changed subprocess.check_call(['vgreduce', '--removemissing', volume_group]) config-changed File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 511, in check_call config-changed raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd) config-changed subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['vgreduce', '--removemissing', u'cinder-volumes']' returned non-zero exit status 5
