Bug Description
During boot evms_activate (when run automatically) claimed:
ENGINE: can't open devmapper node
This resulted in no /dev/evms nodes being created.
Once I got to an initramfs console:
(initramfs) evms_activate
libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work
Aborted
Even though this Aborted message appeared, the proper evms device nodes were created (including devmapper nodes).
I suspect the first is a race with dm_mod. dm_mod is forced loaded in local-top/evms, but there is no assurance that it's control node has been created yet.
