[dm-devel] mirroring: [patch 5 of 6] device failure tolerance

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

 



This patch changes the status output. It will break pvmove and other things that may have been parsing the status output of a mirror. It is necessary, however, if we are going to have a way to determine which device in a mirror failed - or distinguish an failure event from one that may simply signal the device is in-sync. Right now, different logs may output different arguments (device and failure, region size, sync/nosync, etc), which may make it difficult to parse. I wondered about just having the log type and device with liveness status. However, this would still have variable arguments between core and disk - or some future scheme that may use multiple log devices for redundancy.
