It just occurred to me that the system in question is a development box that is abused in stress testing and other scenarios. It crashes in horrible ways fairly often. So I realize I should soften my criticism of LVM mirroring somewhat. Probably the differences resulted during one of the numerous kernel deaths. Block-by-block mirror re-synchronization has been suppressed by the existence of persistent mlogs. Then again, I suppose the mirror log logic is where the failure resides. That fact and that LVM mirroring reliably hangs the kernel if a swap mirror and only moderate system stress are present leaves me with the conviction that LVM mirrors will be entirely avoided here going forward. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=559959 _______________________________________________ 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/
