When I boot, after Activating EVMS2, I get a serie of error: calling "unlink" in "GLOBAL" but all seems ok. evms-2.3.4-r1 didn't produce these errors. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. upgrade to evms-2.4.0 2. reboot 3. look boot messages after Activating EVMS2... Actual Results: It prints a lot of : error: calling "unlink" in "GLOBAL" probably one error per EVMS volume (about 10 in my case) Expected Results: no error during boot.

That's a devfsd error... your devfsd config is calling unlink from a GLOBAL statement, presumably one related to the evms nodes.
Ok.. thank you for the precision. Should the bug be assigned to somebody else? And if it helps I use devfsd-1.3.25-r8.
This is a devfs deficiency, you can safely ignore those messages (they appear to be harmless..)
