Re: [Xen-users] WARNING:root:Unknown image directive recordfail

Hello.

A quick googling for "pygrub WARNING:root:Unknown directive" suggests 
that pygrub is confused by Grub2 config file format, particularly 
submenus. Have you already checked that?

Additionally, I would like to make two observation on the configuration 
you posted.
If you use "bootloader = /usr/bin/pygrub", it's better to comment out 
"kernel" and "ramdisk" directives. The .cfg file parser will surely find 
it's way, but it might be confusing to human eyes and easer to make 
mistakes.
Maybe you wish to reconsider your disk partitioning schema. Since you 
are already use LVM, there shall be no need for extended partition. A 
usable setup is to put /boot on a partition, and send everything else to 
LVM, which is great for making changes and doing snapshot-based backups. 
Of course it's not mandatory, just a more flexible way to do things. 
Definitely this has nothing to do with the initial problem you are facing.
Greetings.
