[resend to dm-devel as this didn't seem to make it to the linux-lvm list]

Hi

I'm having trouble with moving an 11T PV on an x86_64 system.
The command fails with

	Using reduced mirror region size of 0 sectors
	Creating dieder-pvmove0
	Loading dieder-pvmove0 table (253:3)
	device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
	Temporary pvmove mirror activation failed.

This is linux-2.6.31.5 and current lvm/dm userspace tools from
cvs. I've also tried other kernel/lvm/dm versions to no avail,
details below.

AFAICT the mirror region size is reduced to zero because region_max
is is being truncated to a 32 bit value in _mirrored_add_target_line()
of lib/mirror/mirrored.c.

I'm not familiar with the LVM code, but I could imagine the patch
below against current CVS aims towards the right direction. However,
as this machine is our production server, I did not have the guts to
try it out.

So please have a look at the patch. If it makes sense, feel free to
include it. If it doesn't, what could be the reason for the pvmove
to fail? And what can I do to make it succeed?

If you need more information in order to debug this issue, don't
hesitate to ask.

Thanks
Andre
