Is this a normal time frame? How > much longer can I expect? you should see progress (i think it gives some progress without -v iirc), just estimate based on moved PE / total PE and compare to elapsed time. with LVM1 at least, it's quite slow, but I moved 40G in less than 4 hours, so... one thing that threw me, was that it doesn't start moving for a LONG time and there is no output. I had very important data, so I didn't kill it, because I knew it was doing stuff based on wchan :) _______________________________________________ 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/
