Hello,

I'm trying mount three disks from QNAP TS-469L in Linux (Fedora 25).
System correctly recognised disks and RAID5, but I have problem with activate LVM with data.

...

$ sudo vgs
   VG     #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize   VFree
   vg1      1   4   0 wz--n-   5,44t    0

VFree 0 - that's bad...


I tried to activate it with lvchange but there is message that manual repair of vg1/tp1 is required:
$ sudo lvchange -ay vg1/lv2
   Check of pool vg1/tp1 failed (status:1). Manual repair required!

I tried command lvconvert --repair vg1/tp1 with no success:
$ sudo lvconvert --repair vg1/tp1
   Using default stripesize 64,00 KiB.
Volume group "vg1" has insufficient free space (0 extents): 4096 required.

Repair needs some space to write new metadata, and the message says it all: there is no free space in the volume group.

Add more space to the volume group: vgextend vg1 DEVICE. You will either need to add a disk, or carve out some space out of other MD devices.

Or free some space in the VG: you can not shrink thin pool, so the only other option is, if the data on vg1/lv544 are not interesting or can be moved elsewhere, you could remove that and let repair use that space.

Also I noticed the size of logical volume lv1 alone is 5,42t (and with lv2 it is approximately 5,9t) while thin pool's is only 5,40t: that is not a good setup - it will eventually overfill (maybe it already did) and you will not be able to resize the pool any further to accommodate all data - with older kernels this was a serious problem and could lead to a file system corruption.

If that's what the NAS created for you, it should be reported to the manufacturer as well.

Once you can mount the volumes, I strongly recommend shrinking lv1.
