The mirror part does monitor (event based) for failed legs or logs and takes some actions. At the moment, all of its configuration is in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file. Look at activation section. 1) It doesn't notify the admin. 2) It doesn't automatically rebuild with a given sparse disk. Although you can use "allocate" to get this kind of feature. I have not tested this feature though! _______________________________________________ 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/
