This one should be pretty easy...
Effectively, you want to keep the primary mirror devices, so do:
lvconvert -m0 <vg/lv>
to down convert them to linear devices.
Then remove PV1 (vgreduce), add a new disk to your system, add it to
your vg (vgextend), and finally, up-convert the linear devices to
mirrors again:
lvconvert -m1 <vg/lv>
So you can't just add a new disk and use pvmove to move extents off of
the failing disk?

Hi !
I run A Fedora Core 6 box with

LVM version: 2.02.17 (2006-12-14)
Library version: 1.02.13 (2006-11-28)
Driver version: 4.10.0

on a 2.6.19 kernel.
My VG comprises 3PV onto which I've spread 4 mirrored LVs.
PV 0 : LV1 mirror copy 0, LV2 mirror copy 0, lv3 mirror copy 0 and lv4
mirror copy 0
PV 1 : LV1 mirror copy 1, LV2 mirror log, LV3 mirror log and LV4
mirror copy 1
PV2 : LV1 mirror log, LV2 mirror copy 1 , LV3 mirror copy 1 and LV4
mirror log.
I plan to replace (Smart signals a future failure) the PV #1.
Question : What is the best route to do this ? And is it feasible ?
Thanks a lot in advance for your answer !
