Hi! I just tested lv activation with a degraded raid1 thin pool. Unfortunately it looks like activation mode=degraded only works for plain raid1 lvs. If you add a thin pool, lvm won't activate it in degraded mode. (Unless you specify --activationmode partial, which is IMHO rather dangerous.) Is this the intended behavior? -------------------- 8< -------------------- # lvcreate --type raid1 -m 1 -n thinmeta -L100m vg1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 Logical volume "thinmeta" created. # lvcreate --type raid1 -m 1 -n Thin -L2g vg1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 Logical volume "Thin" created. # lvconvert -y --type thin-pool --poolmetadata vg1/thinmeta vg1/Thin Thin pool volume with chunk size 64.00 KiB can address at most 15.81 TiB of data.
