Hi list, Ive moved the _tmeta part of a thinpool to a (ramdisk) device for testing and wanted now to move it back to disk, but this fail: # pvmove -v -n /dev/mapper/dmivg-winthinpool_tmeta /dev/ram0 /dev/sdg1 WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to device scanning. Cluster mirror log daemon not included in build. Wiping internal VG cache Wiping cache of LVM-capable devices Archiving volume group "dmivg" metadata (seqno 217). Creating logical volume pvmove0 Moving 229 extents of logical volume dmivg/winthinpool_tmeta activation/volume_list configuration setting not defined: Checking only host tags for dmivg/winthinpool_tmeta. Setting up pvmove in on-disk volume group metadata. Creating dmivg-pvmove0 device-mapper: create ioctl on dmivg-pvmove0 LVM-EHcvL2Ube7wb2effdgOufgqLTeAS9K6fABDshfurJLvBuIPvuBMXLnlfGxHUNCc8 failed: Device or resource busy Failed to suspend winthinpool_tmeta ABORTING: Temporary pvmove mirror activation failed. It seems, that pvmove is trying to create a mirror-device from *_tmeta on the target disk, but this seems to fail. The computer is still running, so do I have a possibility to save the situation? Can I transfer the *tmeta in another way? LVM und Thin-provisioning-tools are from git today. Tfh!
