If you browse the archive for the last month you will find a couple of threads on the subject. I've posted a cruel patch to make pvmove ignore read-errors, and update the meta-data even if the sector is bad. (The extent will be moved to the other disk, but contain garbage). With this patch the behaviour is undefined when moving more than one PE. Other than that, I think it should work. Others posted suggestions and possible some patches too - allthough there was no complete perfect solution, I think you should be able to make it work from the different tips submitted in the thread. -- Ragnar Kjørstad Big Storage
