hi users,

many thanks,
Hi,
pvmove is generally transparent to the layers above, so
you can continue using the system as usual while a pvmove
is in progress. While I have never seen pvmove actually
fail (My desktop encountered a power failure mid-operation
once, and it just continued as if nothing had happened
after rebooting), with a failing hard disk, I would avoid
any additional IO while the operation is in progress.
ok, thanks
maybe a bit more tricky, would now downsizing a FS be one
thing OK to do(probably also fsck) ? while pvmove is working?
furthermore, would lvreduce be OK to take pvmote out of a LV ?
I have a bit of puzzle type of situation here to deal with -
started pvmove but seems that HDD is rather in a bad
condition for after two days pvmove is barely at 4%.
Should I let it finish - or - abort pvmove and try fsck;
fsreduce; lvreduce..
hmmm..
