Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Thanks for the hint. Indeed, with lvmetad, the need for a manual
"vgchange -a y" goes away. Sadly, the need for "vgchange -a n" in the
stop case does not. Additionally, although the "vgchange -a y" is
superfluous in the use_lvmetad=1 case, it results in spurious error
messages on service start from systemd 215 (nothing useful in journal;
both the mount and the crypt/generated service have started
successfully). So I'm leaving lvmetad disabled for the time being.
