I have a desktop with LVM partition information and multiple FAT and JFS partitions. I installed openSUSE LEAP 42.3 and the Yast partitioner displayed ^A instead of the volume labels for the JFS logical drives. It correctly displayed the FAT logical drives. The Linux system is currently inaccessible due to other reasons, but I noticed that the volume labels all contain space, period or underscore - could that be the source of the problem? If not, do you have any other suggestions?

Volume needs to be recreated using the regular LVM program!
Use the 'create from existing partition' selection there,

could be caused by imaging or cloning. You can make it unique
by opening the partition and updating the volume serial-number:
