Having major problems trying to use pvmove on LVM2. I was told that pvmove was fixed with LVM2 by the person who wrote it and put out 2.0.08. Apparently it isn't. This is a formerly LVM1 format system recently upgraded via vgconvert. root@amphibian:~# pvmove /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/disc device-mapper: error adding target to table device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: Invalid argument Couldn't load device 'vg--big-pvmove0'. ABORTING: Temporary mirror activation failed. device-mapper: device 254:034 too small for target device-mapper: dm-stripe: Couldn't parse stripe destination device-mapper: error adding target to table device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: No such device or address Couldn't load device 'vg--big-usr--src--cvs'. device-mapper: device 254:034 too small for target device-mapper: dm-stripe: Couldn't parse stripe destination device-mapper: error adding target to table device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: No such device or address Couldn't load device 'vg--big-var--log--freenet_stable'. I have seen two reports of similar problems recently, none of which were successfully concluded. Is it likely that this will be fixed? If not, I doubt that LVM2 will be regarded as production quality by anyone for a long time to come... and I'll have to manually mess around with recreating every last LV... :( -- Matthew J Toseland - toad@amphibian.dyndns.org Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible.
