Do you have a mixed-architecture cluster? Some x86-64 and the s390? Otherwise, all operations should be in a format that is understood (unless there is a bug). Also, you don't really need to translate the structure just to go to userspace. Only the process that communicates between (potentially different architectures of) machines needs to do that. That process is cmirrord and the code that should translate for that daemon is in lvm2/daemons/cmirrord/compat.c. There could be a bug, but unless I'm not understanding right, we shouldn't need to switch endian in the kernel. brassow -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
