Hello,

Some time ago, we wrote an application that uses the lvm2app interface to manage volume groups and logical volumes. Of course, the application does not work anymore, now that lvm2app has been skipped. So, is there anywhere something like a guide how to rewrite code that used the lvm2app interface?

Hi

Unfortunatelly there is no API library anymore - we were simply not able to provide such interface - it's complex task and very low number of developers...

The 'new' idea was to use/provide 'DBus' API - however it's also not a lot of 'traction' :( and it's also missing lot of features and design...

So I'd highly recommend to stick with a call standard lvm2 commands.

String interface is pretty good and easy to construct in all programming languages.

Note - lvs has pretty good formatting capabilities for easy parsing (even in i.e. BASH)

Regards


Zdenek
