The exact sequence of commands was:

lvconvert --type raid1 -m 1 faldara/utopic /dev/sdb1
lvconvert --splitmirrors 1 --trackchanges faldara/utopic --name
utopic-backup /dev/md0
lvconvert --splitmirrors 1 --trackchanges faldara/utopic --name
utopic-backup /dev/md0

The idea was to start using the new drive exclusively while keeping a
backup on the old drive.

Also I thought it was a bit odd that --splitmirrors accepted the
- --name argument, but silently ignored it, instead using an internal
auto generated name.
