Sample:
You mean it changes the flags to visible and read only. I don't see
why it can't rename it as well.
Yes, visible and ro is what I meant.
You can't track changes and rename the "backup" leg at the same
time. If you wanted to keep the backup leg after making sure the in
use one was good you would need to issue a new "--splitmirror"
command with a new volume name and *no* "--trackchanges" option.
Why not? A name is just a name; it does not *have* to be called
origin_rimage_0.
I don't disagree but it is the way the tool works. My best guess is the
name is ignored because when you issue "--trackchanges" it is not really
splitting off the leg, more of off lining it from the perspective of the
mirror. It was likely a developer decision for lvconvert to do it that
way when adding in RAID1 from the md stack.
The documentation for lvconvert could be more clear about it.
