Re: LVM thin volumes fstrim operation not supported

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I still get the "the discard operation is not supported" fstrim error
when the LVs are set to "nopassdown"

Seems that when I use ext4 the fstrim reports that it worked but the
LVs Data% does not decrease after the fstrim. xfs just throws the
error.

I've also been looking at the output of lsblk -D

# lsblk -D

    ├─data-pool00            0        0B       0B         0
    └─data-data              0        0B       0B         0

I expect the DISC-GRAN and DISC-MAX to be greater than 0B.
