Hi, I find myself in the situation where I want to scan the current LVM2 setup (what volumegroups exist, their logical volumes, etc) without risking to lock. That brings me to some questions: - What's the worst thing that can happen when ignoring locks while listing logical volumes, reading their properties with the lvm2app library? Can I do this in a system daemon? A crash of my process would be OK, as would be getting temprarily inconsistent information. Permanent damage to the system configuration would not be OK, obviously. - How would I actually best go about ignoring locks? I found some comments in lvm2app about "better support for locking control", so I guess it is not really supported right now. I could have a go at improving this. Would that be worthwhile? Any advice? _______________________________________________ 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/
