Does anyone know if it's possible to set persistent device node
permissions on LVM volumes? I have a few volumes in my LVM which I
want to give access to an "ordinary" user without giving access to all
the other volumes.
I have a group called "kvm", to which my target user(s) belong.
Thus, I want to set up the following permissions:
hrm@willow:~/iso$ ls -l /dev/mapper
total 0
crw------- 1 root root 10, 63 2007-11-06 10:20 control
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 6 2007-11-06 10:20 primary-home
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 0 2007-11-06 10:20 primary-root
[...]
brw-rw---- 1 root kvm 254, 7 2007-11-13 16:51 primary-vm--winxp
The ownership of everything by "disk" is done automatically by the
LVM. However, short of modifying the initscripts for LVM to set the
permissions explicitly, I can't see how to get it to set group
ownership for just the volumes I want.
I've looked at udev, but it doesn't get told about the creation of
device nodes in /dev/mapper (it gets told about /dev/dm-<n>, but
that's useless), so udev is not the solution.
Anyone got any ideas?
Hugo.
