Milan Broz	69ff428151	Always use append to file in lvmdump (selinux policy - no file truncation). ... Workaround dmsetup ls --tree (terminal ioctl for width). (Until isatty() will be allowed by selinux policy.)	2011-06-02 09:02:03 +00:00
Dave Wysochanski	bc773e60e1	Add "dmsetup ls --tree" output to lvmdump. ... It would be most useful to add "dmsetup ls --tree" to the commands run. This command helps in answering the question "which devices are actually underneath a given LV?" Although the info is available with other existing dmsetup commands, adding this command gives a much clearer summary of complex setups. Here's an example of an LVM mirror, with mirror images on partitions created on top of multipath devices. The multipath devices are on simple block devices. As you can see, it is easy to see the stacking from the "dmsetup ls --tree" output: vgmpathtest-lvmpathmir (253:14) ├─vgmpathtest-lvmpathmir_mimage_1 (253:13) │ └─mpath5p1 (253:5) │ └─mpath5 (253:2) │ ├─ (8:16) │ └─ (8:0) ├─vgmpathtest-lvmpathmir_mimage_0 (253:12) │ └─mpath6p1 (253:6) │ └─mpath6 (253:3) │ ├─ (8:48) │ └─ (8:32) └─vgmpathtest-lvmpathmir_mlog (253:11) └─mpath7 (253:4) ├─ (8:80) └─ (8:64) VolGroup00-LogVol01 (253:1) └─ (202:2) vgtest-lvmir (253:10) ├─vgtest-lvmir_mimage_1 (253:9) │ └─ (7:1) ├─vgtest-lvmir_mimage_0 (253:8) │ └─ (7:0) └─vgtest-lvmir_mlog (253:7) └─ (7:3) VolGroup00-LogVol00 (253:0) └─ (202:2) But it is much harder to see the stacking with only the commands today ("dmsetup info", "dmsetup status", and "dmsetup table"). We could piece together the stacking from "dmsetup table" but it requires further processing (take output from "dmsetup info to get map name to major/minor, then parse "dmsetup table", etc).	2011-02-01 21:39:15 +00:00
