I've been attempting to create volumes on the block storage node. I've actually had this working once however when I restarted the controller everything went haywire. I've since gone through another complete reinstall to the block storage point and still have this same issue. I've read some of the other posts regarding this but they either haven't been answered or I didn't show a similar issue in the logs. From what I can tell cinder thinks everything went through fine.

Problem: When running the verify sequence "cinder create --display-name demo-volume1 1" subsequently it never creates the volume in the lvm cinder-volumes. It also shows indefinitely as "creating" in the cinder list command. I can manually go into the cinder-volumes volume group and manually create a logical volume within it fine using lvcreate. However cinder seems unable to create the volume itself.

Note: I'm running Centos 7 w/ Openstack Juno
