Lvmetad is not active yet error handling

Problem phenomenon

This morning, the previous server was shut down and changed to a new location. After that, an error message appears:

lvmetad is not active yet; using direct activation during sysinit

Why

This is not a serious error. In general, LVM will scan the partition to establish the cache, and it will continue after a few seconds. But if you can’t enter it for a long time, you can enter Alt + F2 to enter the second terminal window and operate normally. After waiting for an hour or two, the scan is over. After switching back to the first terminal window through Alt + F1, it should be normal
