Alasdair Kergon	25b733809a	Merge with text format branch. ... Lots of changes/very little testing so far => there'll be bugs! Use 'vgcreate -M text' to create a volume group with its metadata stored in text files. Text format metadata changes should be reasonably atomic, with a (basic) automatic recovery mechanism if the system crashes while a change is in progress. Add a metadata section to lvm.conf to specify multiple directories if you want (recommended) to keep multiple copies of the metadata (eg on different filesystems). e.g. metadata { dirs = ["/etc/lvm/metadata1","/usr/local/lvm/metadata2"] } Plenty of refinements still in the pipeline.	2002-04-24 18:20:51 +00:00
Alasdair Kergon	add7dc2d5a	o pvcreate --uuid to specify the uuid (required before using vgcfgrestore ... onto a new device). uuid specified must not already exist on the system. o More message tidying. o When checking for label, only read PV metadata. o Add ataraid.

Alasdair Kergon	288adea256	o missing labeller free ... o updated vgcfgrestore args o change _check_for_open_devices only to check devices present in the hash table instead of using dev_iter which triggers a full scan even when only displaying command line help	2002-01-15 21:28:04 +00:00

Joe Thornber	6036e5e0f7	o split the uuid -> device map out from vgcache ... o roll vgcache back to agk's implementation, we'll revisit this as part of the cluster integration. o change the extra_info field in a label to be a void *	2002-01-15 10:24:48 +00:00
