Pass the single vgname as a new process_each_vg arg
instead of setting a cmd flag to tell process_each_vg
to take only the first vgname arg from argv.
Other commands with different argv formats will be
able to use it this way.
Add a new arg to lockd_start_vg() that indicates
it is being called for a new lockd VG, so that
lvmlockd knows the lockspace being started is new.
(Will be used by a following commit.)
Remove the existing lock type using the same functions
used to remove the lockd components during vgremove.
This results in a "clean" VG and lvmlockd state after
the vgchange, i.e. no bits left over from previous
lock type.
The unlock call will fail in expected and normal cases,
and should not cause the command to fail. (An actual
unlock in the lock manager should never fail.)
The vgchange/lvchange activation commands read the VG, and
don't write it, so they acquire a shared VG lock from lvmlockd.
When other commands fail to acquire a shared VG lock from
lvmlockd, a warning is printed and they continue without it.
(Without it, the VG metadata they display from lvmetad may
not be up to date.)
vgchange/lvchange -a shouldn't continue without the shared
lock for a couple reasons:
. Usually they will just continue on and fail to acquire the
LV locks for activation, so continuing is pointless.
. More importantly, without the sh VG lock, the VG metadata
used by the command may be stale, and the LV locks shown
in the VG metadata may no longer be current. In the
case of sanlock, this would result in odd, unpredictable
errors when lvmlockd doesn't find the expected lock on
disk. In the case of dlm, the invalid LV lock could be
granted for the non-existing LV.
The solution is to not continue after the shared lock fails,
in the same way that a command fails if an exclusive lock fails.
When lvm is built without lvmlockd support, vgcreate using a
shared lock type would succeed and create a local VG (the
--shared option was effectively ignored). Make it fail.
Fix the same issue when using vgchange to change a VG to a
shared lock type.
Make the error messages consistent.
Both lock_start filters were being skipped when any lock-opt
values were used. The "auto" lock-opt should cause the
auto_lock_start_list to be used. The lock_start_list should
always be used.
The behavior of lock_start_list/auto_lock_start_list are tested
and verified to behave like volume_list/auto_activation_volume_list.
Since the default was changed to wait for lock-start to finish,
the "wait" and "autowait" lock-opt values are not needed, but a
new "autonowait" is added to the existing "nowait" avoid the
default waiting.
The "exported" state of the VG can be useful with lockd VGs
because the exported state keeps a VG from being used in general.
It's a way to keep a VG protected and out of the way.
Also fix the command flags: ALL_VGS_IS_DEFAULT is not true for
vgimport/vgexport, since they both return errors immediately if
no VG args are specified. LOCKD_VG_SH is not true for vgexport
beause it must use an ex lock to write the VG.
Set ACCESS_NEEDS_SYSTEM_ID VG status flag whenever there is
a non-lvm1 system_id set. Prevents concurrent access from
older LVM2 versions.
Not set on VGs that bear a system_id only due to conversion
from lvm1 metadata.
In log messages refer to it as system ID (not System ID).
Do not put quotes around the system_id string when printing.
On the command line use systemid.
In code, metadata, and config files use system_id.
In lvmsystemid refer to the concept/entity as system_id.
cmirror uses the CPG library to pass messages around the cluster and maintain
its bitmaps. When a cluster mirror starts-up, it must send the current state
to any joining members - a checkpoint. When mirrors are large (or the region
size is small), the bitmap size can exceed the message limit of the CPG
library. When this happens, the CPG library returns CPG_ERR_TRY_AGAIN.
(This is also a bug in CPG, since the message will never be successfully sent.)
There is an outstanding bug (bug 682771) that is meant to lift this message
length restriction in CPG, but for now we work around the issue by increasing
the mirror region size. This limits the size of the bitmap and avoids any
issues we would otherwise have around checkpointing.
Since this issue only affects cluster mirrors, the region size adjustments
are only made on cluster mirrors. This patch handles cluster mirror issues
involving pvmove, lvconvert (from linear to mirror), and lvcreate. It also
ensures that when users convert a VG from single-machine to clustered, any
mirrors with too many regions (i.e. a bitmap that would be too large to
properly checkpoint) are trapped.
When checking whether the system ID permits access to a VG, check for
each permitted situation first, and only then issue the appropriate
error message. Always issue a message for now. (We'll try to
suppress some of those later when the VG concerned wasn't explicitly
requested.)
Add more messages to try to ensure every return code is checked and
every error path (and only an error path) contains a log_error().
Add self-correction to vgchange -c to deal with situations where
the cluster state and system ID state are out-of-sync (e.g. if
old tools were used).
This patch replaces "void *handle" with "struct processing_handle *handle"
in process_each_*, process_single_* and related functions.
The struct processing_handle consists of two handles inside now:
- the "struct selection_handle *selection_handle" used for
applying selection criteria while processing process_each_*,
process_single_* and related functions (patches using this
logic will follow)
- the "void* custom_handle" (this is actually the original handle
used before this patch - a pointer to custom data passed into
process_each_*, process_single_* and related functions).
Tool will use internal activation of unused cache pool to
clear metadata area before next use of cache-pool.
So allow to deactivation unused pool in case some error
case happend and we were not able to deactivation pool
right after metadata wipe.
We need to use proper filter chain when we disable lvmetad use
explicitly in the code by calling lvmetad_set_active(0) while
overriding existing configuration. We need to reinitialize filters
in this case so proper filter chain is used. The same applies
for the other way round - when we enable lvmetad use explicitly in
the code (though this is not yet used).
Use of lv_info() internally in lv_check_not_in_use(),
so it always could use with_open_count properly.
Skip sysfs() testing in open_count == 0 case.
Accept just 'lv' pointer like other functions.
The function has 'built-in' lv_is_active_locally check,
which however is not what we need to check in many place.
For now at least remotely active snapshot merge is
detected and for this case merge on next activation is scheduled.
Before leaving _activate_lvs_in_vg() wait till devices
are active - so we do not print message about active
devices earlier then it really happens for a user.
If we want to support conversion of VG to clustered type,
we currently need to relock active LV to get proper DLM lock.
So add extra loop after change of VG clustered attribute
to exlusively activate all active top level LVs.
When doing change -cy -> -cn we should validate LVs are not
active on other cluster nodes - we could be sure about this only
when with local exclusive activation - for other types
we require user to deactivate volumes first.
As a workaround for this limitation there is always
locking_type = 0 which amongs other skip the detection
of active LVs.
FIXME:
clvmd should handle looks for cluster locking type all the time.
Use lv_is_* macros throughout the code base, introducing
lv_is_pvmove, lv_is_locked, lv_is_converting and lv_is_merging.
lv_is_mirror_type no longer includes pvmove.
And use ifdefs there, not exposing it in the tool code itself.
Later in the future, we should probably make the PIDFILE and
daemon checking code available also in case the daemon itself
is not built.
If the user supplies a '--yes' argument, then don't bother them with
a question to confirm whether to change the cluster attribute (even
if clvmd isn't running).
If clvmd is not running or the locking type is not clustered and someone
attempts to set the cluster attribute on a volume group, prompt them to
see if they are sure. (Only prompt for one though. If neither are true,
simply ask them once.)
- When defining configuration source, the code now uses separate
CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA markers
(before, it was just CONFIG_PROFILE that did not make the
difference between the two). This helps when checking the
configuration if it contains correct set of options which
are all in either command-profilable or metadata-profilable
group without mixing these groups together - so it's a firm
distinction. The "command profile" can't contain
"metadata profile" and vice versa! This is strictly checked
and if the settings are mixed, such profile is rejected and
it's not used. So in the end, the CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND
set of options and CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA are mutually exclusive
sets.
- Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also
determine the way these configuration sources are positioned
in the configuration cascade which is now:
CONFIG_STRING -> CONFIG_PROFILE_COMMAND -> CONFIG_PROFILE_METADATA -> CONFIG_FILE/CONFIG_MERGED_FILES
- Marking configuration with one or the other marker will also make
it possible to issue a command context refresh (will be probably
a part of a future patch) if needed for settings in global profile
set. For settings in metadata profile set this is impossible since
we can't refresh cmd context in the middle of reading VG/LV metadata
and for each VG/LV separately because each VG/LV can have a different
metadata profile assinged and it's not possible to change these
settings at this level.
- When command profile is incorrect, it's rejected *and also* the
command exits immediately - the profile *must* be correct for the
command that was run with a profile to be executed. Before this
patch, when the profile was found incorrect, there was just the
warning message and the command continued without profile applied.
But it's more correct to exit immediately in this case.
- When metadata profile is incorrect, we reject it during command
runtime (as we know the profile name from metadata and not early
from command line as it is in case of command profiles) and we
*do continue* with the command as we're in the middle of operation.
Also, the metadata profile is applied directly and on the fly on
find_config_tree_* fn call and even if the metadata profile is
found incorrect, we still need to return the non-profiled value
as found in the other configuration provided or default value.
To exit immediately even in this case, we'd need to refactor
existing find_config_tree_* fns so they can return error. Currently,
these fns return only config values (which end up with default
values in the end if the config is not found).
- To check the profile validity before use to be sure it's correct,
one can use :
lvm dumpconfig --commandprofile/--metadataprofile ProfileName --validate
(the --commandprofile/--metadataprofile for dumpconfig will come
as part of the subsequent patch)
- This patch also adds a reference to --commandprofile and
--metadataprofile in the cmd help string (which was missing before
for the --profile for some commands). We do not mention --profile
now as people should use --commandprofile or --metadataprofile
directly. However, the --profile is still supported for backward
compatibility and it's translated as:
--profile == --metadataprofile for lvcreate, vgcreate, lvchange and vgchange
(as these commands are able to attach profile to metadata)
--profile == --commandprofile for all the other commands
(--metadataprofile is not allowed there as it makes no sense)
- This patch also contains some cleanups to make the code handling
the profiles more readable...
Remove 'skip' argument passed into the function.
We always used '0' - as this is the only supported
option (-K) and there is no complementary option.
Also add some testing for behaviour of skipping.
Since activation takes only read-lock, there could be
multiple activation running in parallel.
So instead of checking before taking any real lock,
let the locking resolve the problem and just
detect if the reason for failure has been remote
exlusive activation.
It should be also faster, since each activation does
not need to do explicit lock query.
If using lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay and lvmetad is enabled, we'd like to
avoid the direct activation and rely on autoactivation instead so
it fits system initialization scripts.
But if we're calling lv/vgchange --sysinit -aay too early when even
lvmetad service is not started yet, we just need to do the direct
activation instead without printing any error messages (while
trying to connect to lvmetad and not finding its socket).
This patch adds two helper functions - "lvmetad_socket_present" and
"lvmetad_used" which can be used to check for this condition properly
and avoid these lvmetad connections when the socket is not present
(and hence lvmetad is not yet running).
The lvchange has both -k/--setactivationskip and
-K/--ignoreactivationskip option available for use.
The vgchange has only -K/--ignoreactivationskip, but
not the -k/--setactivationskip as the ACTIVATION_SKIP
flag is an LV property, not a VG one and so we change it
only by using the lvchange...
The command to change the profile for existing VG/LV:
"vgchange/lvchange --profile <profile_name>"
The command to detach any existing profile from VG/LV:
"vgchange/lvchange --detachprofile"
Check for mounted fs also for vgchange command, not just lvchange.
NOTE: Code is using lv_info() just like lvs_in_vg_opened().
It should be probably converted into lv_is_active_locally().
Move common code for changing activation state from
vgchange and lvchange to one function.
Fix the order of checks - so we always implicitelly
activate snapshots and thin volumes in exclusive mode,
and we do not allow local deactivation for them.
Use log_warn to print non-fatal warning messages.
Use of log_error would confuse checker for testing
whether proper error has been reported for some real error.
A while back, the behavior of LVM changed from allowing metadata changes
when PVs were missing to not allowing changes. Until recently, this
change was tolerated by HA-LVM by forcing a 'vgreduce --removemissing'
before trying (again) to add tags to an LV and then activate it. LVM
mirroring requires that failed devices are removed anyway, so this was
largely harmless. However, RAID LVs do not require devices to be removed
from the array in order to be activated. In fact, in an HA-LVM
environment this would be very undesirable. Device failures in such an
environment can often be transient and it would be much better to restore
the device to the array than synchronize an entirely new device.
There are two methods that can be used to setup an HA-LVM environment:
"clvm" or "tagging". For RAID LVs, "clvm" is out of the question because
RAID LVs are not supported in clustered VGs - not even in an exclusively
activated manner. That leaves "tagging". HA-LVM uses tagging - coupled
with 'volume_list' - to ensure that only one machine can have an LV active
at a time. If updates are not allowed when a PV is missing, it is
impossible to add or remove tags to allow for activation. This removes
one of the most basic functionalities of HA-LVM - site redundancy. If
mirroring or RAID is used to replicate the storage in two data centers
and one of them goes down, a server and a storage device are lost. When
the service fails-over to the alternate site, the VG will be "partial".
Unable to add a tag to the VG/LV, the RAID device will be unable to
activate.
The solution is to allow vgchange and lvchange to alter the LVM metadata
for a limited set of options - --[add|del]tag included. The set of
allowable options are ones that do not cause changes to the DM kernel
target (like --resync would) or could alter the structure of the LV
(like allocation or conversion).
Using 'activation/auto_activation_volume_list = [ "vg/lvol1" ]'.
Before this patch:
3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg" now active
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Move Log Copy% Convert
lvol0 vg -wi----- 4.00m
lvol1 vg -wi-a--- 4.00m
lvol2 vg -wi-a--- 4.00m
lvol3 vg -wi-a--- 4.00m
(vg/lvol1 activated as it passes the list and all subsequent volumes too - wrong!)
With this patch:
1 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg" now active
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Move Log Copy% Convert
lvol0 vg -wi----- 4.00m
lvol1 vg -wi-a--- 4.00m
lvol2 vg -wi----- 4.00m
lvol3 vg -wi----- 4.00m
(only vg/lvol1 activated as it passes the list and no other - correct!)
Accept -q as the short form of --quiet.
Suppress non-essential standard output if -q is given twice.
Treat log/silent in lvm.conf as equivalent to -qq.
Review all log_print messages and change some to
log_print_unless_silent.
When silent, the following commands still produce output:
dumpconfig, lvdisplay, lvmdiskscan, lvs, pvck, pvdisplay,
pvs, version, vgcfgrestore -l, vgdisplay, vgs.
[Needs checking.]
Non-essential messages are shifted from log level 4 to log level 5
for syslog and lvm2_log_fn purposes.
When --sysinit -a ay is used with vg/lvchange and lvmetad is up and running,
we should skip manual activation as that would be a useless step - all volumes
are autoactivated once all the PVs for a VG are present.
If lvmetad is not active at the time of the vgchange --sysinit -a ay
call, the activation proceeds in standard 'manual' way.
This way, we can still have vg/lvchange --sysinit -a ay called
unconditionally in system initialization scripts no matter if lvmetad
is used or not.
Normally, the 'vgchange -ay' activates all volume groups (that pass
the activation/volume_list filter if set).
This call can appear in two scenarios:
- system boot (so activation within a script in general)
- manual call on command line (so activaton on user's direct request)
For the former one, we would like to select which VGs should be actually
activated. One can define the list of VGs directly to do that. But that
would require the same list to be provided in all the scripts.
The 'vgchange -aay' will check for the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
in adition and it will activate only those VGs/LVs that pass this
filter (assuming all to be activated if the list is not defined - the
same logic we already have for activation/volume_list).
Init/boot scripts should use this form of activation primarily
(which, anyway, becomes only a fallback now with autoactivation done
on PV appearance in tandem with lvmetad in place).
Define an 'activation_handler' that gets called automatically on
PV appearance/disappearance while processing the lvmetad_pv_found
and lvmetad_pv_gone functions that are supposed to update the
lvmetad state based on PV availability state. For now, the actual
support is for PV appearance only, leaving room for PV disappearance
support as well (which is a more complex problem to solve as this
needs to count with possible device stack).
Add a new activation change mode - CHANGE_AAY exposed as
'--activate ay/-aay' argument ('activate automatically').
Factor out the vgchange activation functionality for use in other
tools (like pvscan...).
We're refererring to 'activation' all over the code and we're talking
about 'LVs being activated' all the time so let's use 'activation/activate'
everywhere for clarity and consistency (still providing the old
'available' keyword as a synonym for backward compatibility with
existing environments).
Code adds better support for monitoring of thin pool devices.
update_pool_lv uses DMEVENTD_MONITOR_IGNORE to not manipulate with monitoring.
vgchange & lvchange are checking real thin pool device for existance
as we are using _tpool real device and visible LV pool device might not
be even active (_tpool is activated implicitely for any thin volume).
monitor_dev_for_events is another _lv_postorder like code it might be worth
to think about reusing it here - for now update the code to properly
monitory thin volume deps.
For unmonitoring add extra code to check the usage of thin pool - in case it's in use
unmonitoring of thin volume is skipped.
Read lvm.conf setting for monitoring for each command. So we should not
activate monitoring if the default compilation is set to monitor during
lvconvert commnads.
Patch also removes check for clustered VG and allows to disable monitoring
for clustered VG with the assumption, the problem with monitoring and dmeventd
flag passing for INGNORE is already fixed.
All thins are created with the next activation and VG is updated
without messages. Only some basic commands works.
(i.e. lvcreate -an -V10 -T mvg/pool)
There can be some combination to confuse this system.
This functionality for snapshots is going to be interesting.
To ensure we properly handle LV cluster locking - explicitely do
not allow to change the availability of the thin pool that is in use
for some thin LV.
As soon as the thin volume is created the only way to activate pool
is via implicit dependency.
Ignore thinpool open count for lv/vgchange operations.
are affected by the move. (Currently it's possible for I/O to become
trapped between suspended devices amongst other problems.
The current fix was selected so as to minimise the testing surface. I
hope eventually to replace it with a cleaner one that extends the
deptree code.
Some lvconvert scenarios still suffer from related problems.
activated.
In order to achieve this, we need to be able to query whether
the origin is active exclusively (a condition of being able to
add an exclusive snapshot).
Once we are able to query the exclusive activation of an LV, we
can safely create/activate the snapshot.
A change to 'hold_lock' was also made so that a request to aquire
a WRITE lock did not replace an EX lock, which is already a form
of write lock.
Simultaneous -a and --refresh is not valid.
poll+monitor are valid together with or without -ay* (but not with -an*)
No longer print polling results summary if no LVs in the VG were polled.
