Hello, I just bought a new hard disk and put them in my system (It now has 60 gigs + 40 gigs), but it might be I move the 40 gigger to another system. Also, the 60 gigger is faster so I prefer having as much of my data on it as possible. So I have 2 questions about pvmove. 1: suppose my hamster bites my power cord during a pvmove and only half of the data will have moved. How great a disaster does this result in? Does lvm move one extend and does it write to disk which LE has been mapped to which PE, or does it first write all the data and rewrite the metadata? 2: does lvm ever get fragmented if one moves data around across different disks a lot? thx. -- Frank Van Damme http://www.openstandaarden.be ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Je pense, donc je suis breveté." _______________________________________________ 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/
