Re: lvm raid: pvmove vs lvconvert

lvm has fantastic man pages, would be great if "--replace" was shortly explained in context of raid0.
Would it work? does it move data?

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.

hi there

in lvm raid LVs, which one should be used and how do they differ - would you know? Are they meant for different things?

sorry, I'm thinking specifically of: lvconvert --replace VS pvmove

many thanks, L.
