vgs with error code -210

[yangni2017]

Hello,
CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core)
LVM version: 2.03.08(2)-RHEL8 (2020-02-11)

We set up cluster lvm using sanlock as the lock type, and using serval vg in the cluster.
The issue is when the accessing of the storage is still failed, in the case, we can not executed vgs command any more. How to avoid this issue?

the phenomenon is consistent with the issue #62 , but i uses the version of LVM 2.03.15 , the problem is also exist.

Thanks.
The log is as below:

LVM 2.03.15 does not include this upstream lvm commit:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=d14245c72425b99c3bc33a533da46962d010871a
which was the fix for issue #62

I'm not certain that you have the same problem, but please try that fix to see if it helps.

Assuming bug is now fixed - since there is no reaction for more then 1/2 year.
