Some more information that may be of use: kernel 2.4.26 (vanilla) on gentoo on a P4 HT and SMP is enabled lvm 2.00.08
It seems that everytime I do a "pvmove" it would be hard to always go to a contiguous pv the same size or bigger. This is why I wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
Thanks again [to anyone out there], Scott Serr

I'm trying to use pvmove to shuffle things around. I have a pv with 22375 extents which I would like to remove from the system. I've added two (2) pvs with 11194 extents each. I get an error message:
Insufficient contiguous allocatable extents (11194) for logical volume pvmove0: 22375 required
Allocation for temporary pvmove LV
Now before you say, don't make it contiguous... It seems that it isn't already.
# lvchange --contiguous n /dev/data_vg/data_lv Allocation policy of logical volume "data_lv" is already not contiguous
Is this normal? Do I really need all that contiguous space on 1 pv?
Thanks in advance, Scott Serr
