You could use either, I suppose. The replace will pull out the RAID member and replace it with a new one. pvmove will create a temporary mirror for the member being moved. I don’t think it makes a huge difference which you use, but I would tend to use ‘lvconvert --replace’ when working with RAID segment types. brassow > On Oct 18, 2017, at 9:54 AM, lejeczek <peljasz@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: > > > > On 18/10/17 15:42, lejeczek wrote: >> hi there >> >> in lvm raid LVs, which one should be used and how do they differ - would you know?
