Resolution

• Activate the lv with lvchange -ay command. Once activated, the LV will show as available.

  # lvchange -ay /dev/testvg/mylv

Root Cause

• When a logical volume is not active, it will show as NOT available in lvdisplay.

Diagnostic Steps

• Check the output of the lvs command and see whether the lv is active or not.
