Bug Description

Impact:
* Cannot use clvm as a cluster resource.

Test case:
# /etc/init.d/clvm stop; /etc/init.d/clvm status; echo $?
 * Cluster LVM Daemon is not running
3
# /etc/init.d/clvm start; /etc/init.d/clvm status; echo $?
 * Cluster LVM Daemon is running
0

Regression potential:
If there were tests out there that did pattern matching on the text and check for exit code 0, they will now fail to detect that clvm is not running (since exit code has changed to 3 now).

Description:
# /etc/init.d/clvm status ; echo $?
 * Cluster LVM Daemon is not running
0

/etc/init.d/clvm is showing, that Cluster LVM Daemon is not running, but it always exits with 0.
So processes that controll CLVM using "/etc/init.d/clvm status", that rely on correct exit codes, are going to fail.

In consequence it is not possible to use "/etc/init.d/clvm" as a script to a resource in "cluster.conf".

You cannot do sth. like:

  <resources>
   <script file="/etc/init.d/clvm" name="clvm"/>
  </resources>

  <service autostart="1" domain="only1" exclusive="0" name="clvm1" recovery="restart">
   <script ref="clvm"/>
  </service>

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Verified using precise cloud instance.

Please note that if cman & cluster is not configured (missing /etc/cluster/cluster.conf and cman_tool status exists with non-zero) then the clvm init script will exist with 0. I think this is ok, since clvm init script does depend on cman and hence it is expected for cman to be present and operational.
