Eric, We would like to automate the process that you have described in LVM2 at some point. So if you get an error on an LV and new PE will be allocated, as much data as possible copied from the bad PE to the new PE, and then remap the LV so that it's using the new PE (very much like a small pvmove). The EVMS team are writing a bad block relocator target for device mapper, but I don't feel it's neccessary to add yet another device layer to the LVs. If I have a bad block I don't mind loosing a whole PE (people may not agree with me on this ?) - Joe _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
