It is pretty much the same as reducing the number of
mirror legs, but we just don't delete them afterwards.
The following command line interface is enforced:
prompt> lvconvert --splitmirror <n> -n <name> <VG>/<LV>
where 'n' is the number of images to split off, and
where 'name' is the name of the newly split off logical volume.
If more than one leg is split off, a new mirror will be the
result. The newly split off mirror will have a 'core' log.
Example:
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
LV Copy% Devices
lv 100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_1(0),lv_mimage_2(0),lv_mimage_3(0)
[lv_mimage_0] /dev/sdb1(0)
[lv_mimage_1] /dev/sdc1(0)
[lv_mimage_2] /dev/sdd1(0)
[lv_mimage_3] /dev/sde1(0)
[lv_mlog] /dev/sdi1(0)
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# lvconvert --splitmirrors 2 --name split vg/lv /dev/sd[ce]1
Logical volume lv converted.
[root@bp-01 LVM2]# !lvs
lvs -a -o name,copy_percent,devices
LV Copy% Devices
lv 100.00 lv_mimage_0(0),lv_mimage_2(0)
[lv_mimage_0] /dev/sdb1(0)
[lv_mimage_2] /dev/sdd1(0)
[lv_mlog] /dev/sdi1(0)
split 100.00 split_mimage_0(0),split_mimage_1(0)
[split_mimage_0] /dev/sde1(0)
[split_mimage_1] /dev/sdc1(0)
It can be seen that '--splitmirror <n>' is exactly the same
as '--mirrors -<n>' (note the minus sign), except there is the
additional notion to keep the image being detached from the
mirror instead of just throwing it away.

This patch tries to correctly track changes in lvmcache related to commit/revert.
For vg_commit: if there is cached precommitted metadata, after successfull commit
these metadata must be tracked as committed.
For vg_revert: remote nodes must drop precommitted metadata and its flag in lvmcache.
(N.B. Patch do not touch LV locks here in any way.)
All this machinery is needed to properly solve remote node cache invalidaton which
cause several problems recently observed.
The use_precommitted flag indicates, that we want to use precommitted metadata
(used in suspend call to preload table with precommitted data).
But if there are no such data, committed metadata are read but the cache
still contains that precommitted flag.
(The problem is that later possible drop_metadata call will not invalidate
device in cache.)
The wrong precommitted state is stored in on remote nodes during normal
suspend/resume cycle _without_ vg_write/commit.
Use the PRECOMMITTED status flag here instead (which is always set if using
precommited metadata here).
If renaming snapshot with virtual origin, the origin is renamed too.
But the code must resume LVs in reverse order to properly
pair memlock (in cluster locking).
(The resume of snapshot resumes origin too and later resume
is ignored otherwise.)
When PV device reappears with old metadata, it is
always updated to new version byt atutomatic metadata
repair.
Remove missing flag if device is empty.
If device contains allocated extents, issue warning that
user must remove volumes and re-add this PV before
manipulating with this volume.
This partially solves bug 547842 when one PV (log) is failed,
dmeventd removes that device and later this device reappears and
is wrongly added into VG marked missing.
The memlock_inc() fix is wrong, memlock count is not
propagated to long living process (clvmd) and just
it underflow there.
Also suspend is needed to pre-load precommited metadata
on other nodes (remapping to error taget in this case).
With explicit suspend we generate lock request and code
can update memlock count.
(Infinitely "locked" memory caused that fs_unlock() was not
called properly and on cluster nodes remains
old links in /dev/mapper for not active devices.)
(N.B. failing of suspend call here is not handled as fatal
error - the LV is going to be removed later anyway.)
The new recovery code first tries to repair LV and then removes failed PV
from VG. It means that during operation there can be VG with PV missing,
and vg_read code handles it like not consistent VG.
We already allows returning "inconsistent" commited metadata,
for mirror repair we need this for precommited too.
(The suspend call prepares precommited metadata to inactive table on
other cluster nodes.)
"Inconsistent" here means - correct metadata, just with some metadata areas
not found (obviously on missing or failed PVs).
If there is problem deactivate LV and
_init_mirror_log is called with remove_on_failure = 1,
remove the newly created log LV from metadata.
(This can happen if there is active device with the same name
but different UUID.)
The main reason for this "workaround" patch is to
- do not keep _mlog volume in metadata, so user can repeat the action
- print better error message describing the real problem

At this point they probably do not matter but going forward they
may - depends on future patches for replicator, etc. I think
these probably got missed because they were 'flags' so I changed
the name to 'status' to be consistent. So the on-disk
things 'flags' and the in structure 'status' (bits).
NOTE: WHATS_NEW already has entry for this in current release.

The physical_volume, volume_group, logical_volume and lv_segment
structures' 'status' member is now uint64_t.
The alignment of these structures was also audited to remove holes. The
movement of some members in 'volume_group' and 'lv_segment' eliminates
holes. The 'physical_volume' structure still has one 4-byte hole after
'pe_size'; the other structures no longer have any holes. Each
structures' size has not changed.
Rename fill_default_pvcreate_params to pvcreate_params_set_defaults.
Rename pvcreate_validate_restore_params to pvcreate_restore_params_validate.
Rename pvcreate_validate_params to pvcreate_params_validate.
Similar to other vg_set_* functions, we create a vg_set_clustered() function
which does a few checks and sets a flag. This is where we check for
any limitations of clusters.
[root@xxxx-01 ~]# lvconvert -m 1 --corelog VG/cmirror
Unable to convert the log of inactive cluster mirror cmirror
I've tried to clean-up the message a little more, so the name
of the mirror stands out more while preserving the sense that
it's not a problem with the specific device, but the fact that
it is inactive that is causing the problem.
New msg:
Unable to convert the log of an inactive cluster mirror, cmirror
Split pvcreate_validate_params into recovery and non-recovery parameters.
This is necessary so we can call the non-recovery validate function from
vgextend / vgcreate. Note in the pvcreate tool case, we must call the
recovery validation function first (see treatment of pe_start and --zero),
and that we add a call to fill_default_pvcreate_params before the validation
functions.
We need defaults for pvcreate_params at a higher level - this will
allow us to use a common function from the tools to take defaults,
then fill in any non-defaults from the commandline.
Future patches will refactor vgcreate/vgextend to call this function
if one or more pvcreate parameters are given on the commandline.
Another refactoring for implicit pvcreate support. We need to get
the pvcreate parameters somehow to the vg_extend routine. Options
seemed to be:
1. Attach the parameters to struct volume_group. I personally
did not like this idea in most cases, though one could make an
agrument why it might be ok at least for some of the parameters
(e.g. metadatacopies).
2. Pass them in to the extend routine. This second route seemed
to be the best approach given the constraints.
Future patches will parse the command line and fill in the actual
values for the pvcreate_single call.
Should be no functional change.
Should be no functional change. If this parameter is set to NULL, just fail
the extend if the device is not already a PV. If non-NULL, try pvcreate_single
before failing. Note that pvcreate_single() handles the log_error in case
of failure so we just return 0 if pvcreate_single() fails.
Clean up VG_RESIZEABLE flag by creating vg_is_resizeable().
Update comment - we no longer have ALLOW_RESIZEABLE.
Also use vg_is_exported() in one place missed by earlier patch.
Should be no functional change.
Of the vgs field vg_attr, a few of the most likely to be used attributes
are clustered, exported, and partial. This patch adds the following 3
functions:
uint64_t lvm_vg_is_clustered(const vg_t vg)
uint64_t lvm_vg_is_exported(const vg_t vg)
uint64_t lvm_vg_is_partial(const vg_t vg)
Now that we've split vg_remove_single into two routines, in the first routine
that only manipulates memory, we move the PVs from the vg->pvs list to the
vg->removed_pvs list. Then later, we iterate through this list to write the
removed PVs to disk, which removes them from the volume group and places them
into the internal ORPHAN VG.

Split vg_remove_single into vg_remove_check (mandatory checks before
vgremove) and vg_remove (do actual remove by committing to disk).
In liblvm, we'd like to provide an consistent API that allows multiple
changes in memory, then let lvm_vg_write() control the commit to disk. In
some cases (for example, lvresize calls fsadm) this may not be possible.
However, since we are using an object model and dividing things into small
operations, the most logical model seems to be the lvm_vg_write model, and
handling the special cases as they arrive. So as best as possible
we move towards this end.
A possible optimization would be to consolidate vg_remove (committing)
code with vgreduce code. A second possible optimization is making vgreduce
of the last device equivalent to vgremove. Today, lvm_vg_reduce fails if
vgreduce is called with the last device, but from an object model perspective
we could view this as equivalent to vgremove and allow it. My gut feel is
we do not want to do this though.
