I have created a custom (non-root) volume group homevg
bash-5.1# lsvg homevg

I have created logical volume homelv with jfs filesystem ( + homelvlog log device)
bash-5.1# lslv homelv
LOGICAL VOLUME: homelv VOLUME GROUP: homevg
LV IDENTIFIER: 00c97c4000004b000000018577fceedd.1 PERMISSION: read/write

INTER-POLICY: minimum RELOCATABLE: yes
INTRA-POLICY: middle UPPER BOUND: 32
MOUNT POINT: /home LABEL: None
MIRROR WRITE CONSISTENCY: on/ACTIVE
EACH LP COPY ON A SEPARATE PV ?: yes
Serialize IO ?: NO
INFINITE RETRY: no PREFERRED READ: 0
I have added the entry to /etc/filesystems and mounted it
bash-5.1# grep -A 6 '/home:' /etc/filesystems
/home:
dev = /dev/homelv
vfs = jfs2
log = /dev/homelvlog
mount = true
options = rbw,rw,log=NULL
account = false
After reboot the filesystem is not mounted and fails to mount with the following error message
Replaying log for /dev/homelv.
mount: /dev/homelv on /home: Unformatted or incompatible media
The superblock on /dev/homelv is dirty. Run a full fsck to fix.
After repairing it with fsck it can be mounted.
I have not find anything helpful in AIX documentation.
Edit: Any idea how to keep the filesystem persistently mounted across reboots?
I would be grateful for any pointers
