Question about speed of boot with mirror and lvm

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I've a PC with Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS.

It uses a raid 1 mirror array to make one of the PV of my LVM setup. MD metadata is version 0.9 so at the end of the two devices.

The LVM is :

# lvs --version
  LVM version:     2.02.176(2) (2017-11-03)
  Library version: 1.02.145 (2017-11-03)
  Driver version:  4.37.0
  Configuration:   ./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --includedir=${prefix}/include --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --infodir=${prefix}/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-silent-rules --libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --libexecdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --runstatedir=/run --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-dependency-tracking --exec-prefix= --bindir=/bin --libdir=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --sbindir=/sbin --with-usrlibdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --with-optimisation=-O2 --with-cache=internal --with-clvmd=corosync --with-cluster=internal --with-device-uid=0 --with-device-gid=6 --with-device-mode=0660 --with-default-pid-dir=/run --with-default-run-dir=/run/lvm --with-default-locking-dir=/run/lock/lvm --with-thin=internal --with-thin-check=/usr/sbin/thin_check --with-thin-dump=/usr/sbin/thin_dump --with-thin-repair=/usr/sbin/thin_repair --enable-applib --enable-blkid_wiping --enable-cmdlib --enable-cmirrord --enable-dmeventd --enable-dbus-service --enable-lvmetad --enable-lvmlockd-dlm --enable-lvmlockd-sanlock --enable-lvmpolld --enable-notify-dbus --enable-pkgconfig --enable-readline --enable-udev_rules --enable-udev_sync

#

Which is the standard Ubuntu LVM.

Since the upgrade to 18.04 booting is very slow as the kernel/boot has to scan for all the devices.

I've followed the previous discussion about LVM and MD, did not understand everything of it so I have a question : How could I speed up the boot process ? Is masking one of the two disks in lvm.conf with a filter is a good idea ? Or am I dumb ?

Many thanks in advance for your help and advice.
