lvmetad is not active yet

[doogiekd]

hi all,

i upgraded to ubuntu 16.04 and am getting the following message during boot:

lvmetad is not active yet
using direct activation during sysinit
/dev/mapper/ubuntu-vg-root: clean
346675/9691136 files

what does this message mean?
what can i do to correct this, if indeed. this is an error?

thanks!

I had the exact same problem
Found the solution here[https://unix.stackexchange.com/quest...directory-but]

systemctl enable lvm2-lvmetad.service
systemctl enable lvm2-lvmetad.socket
systemctl start lvm2-lvmetad.service
systemctl start lvm2-lvmetad.socket

This worked for my LVM Ubuntu 16.04

I tested this procedure, but without any perceptive changes.

Hi guys,

did you resolved this issue? I am experiencing the same problem and the suggestion above didn't have any effect on my Ubuntu 16.04
