hi i have a LV with two PVs in it, like this: --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/watchdog/watchdog_var VG Name watchdog LV UUID v6U2JY-PBMf-snpJ-IXX5-ZzcV-y4fk-PchoQg LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 72.22 GB Current LE 2311 Segments 1 Allocation next free (default) Read ahead sectors 0 Block device 254:6 --- Physical volumes --- PV Name /dev/sdb2 PV UUID 5v23aD-mkO0-I9Ur-zUKG-sGd2-8iCP-zhgfJe PV Status allocatable Total PE / Free PE 2500 / 189 PV Name /dev/sda1 PV UUID 7mzLEZ-Va0c-sdiW-8KAV-lyjo-a5yI-GBORGS PV Status allocatable Total PE / Free PE 2941 / 2753 i want to remove sdb2, so i wanted to make a pvmove /dev/sdb2, so it would move everything to sda1. the strange thing is, pvmove starts, and after, say, 20% (about an hour or so) the whole system hangs somehow. i can ping the box, but any command i try to run, fails. it's like it's waiting for the disk to read/write, or something like that. the distrib is Fedora Core 2. lvm> version LVM version: 2.00.15 (2004-04-19) Library version: 1.00.14-ioctl (2004-04-06) Driver version: 4.4.0 filesystem is ext3. the system has 2GB RAM, dual Intel Xeon 3GHz. i tried with kernel 2.6.11.7, after a while it gives me kernel panic during pvmove. then i tried with 2.6.9, it didn't panic, but it hung, and i had to reboot. it's kinda urgent, thanks. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
