A coworker has been testing failure scenarious using lvm, and noticed that when a PV fail a filesystem on a logical volume that spans multiple PVs only fails once it accesses the actually failed physical device. At least for system using higher level error detection and replication behaviour that fails a LV as soon as one of the underlying devices fails would be much more helpful. Is the current LVM behaviour intention and should we work around this using userspace monitoring, or would be patches to introduce a shutdown state similar to what we have in XFS for example be welcome? -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
