Hi, I'm getting the dreaded "metadata too large for circular buffer" message trying to create a new LV in a volume group of a few hundred other LVs. As I understand, this is because the PVs don't have enough space for the metadata. This size can be set to a larger value when pvcreating with --metadatasize but I have obviously missed that boat :) Is there a way to increase this with live PVs, rather than shifting all the data off them and recreating and shifting back on? I have a multinode RedHat Cluster with CLVMD and two PVs. I can add additional PVs if that helps (though as I understand *every* PV needs enough metadata space). Thanks in advance!
