Support has many limitations and lots of FIXMEs inside,
however it makes initial task when user creates a separate LV for
thin pool data and thin metadata already usable, so let's enable
it for testing.
Easiest API:
lvconvert --chunksize XX --thinpool data_lv metadata_lv
More functionality extensions will follow up.
TODO: Code needs some rework since a lot of same code is getting copied.
Calling vgscan alone should reuse information from the lvmetad (if running).
The --cache option should initiate direct device scan and update lvmetad
appropriately (if running).
This is mainly for vgscan to behave consistently compared to pvscan.
Fix regression in man page. The chunk size is in kilobyte units on command line
input though in the source code we work with sector size unit
so make it clear in the man page.
Update chunksize for thin pool in man page - it's max value is 1024M == 1G.
Fix warning range message to show proper max value.
Hold global lock in pvscan --lvmetad. (This might need refinement.)
Add PV name to "PV gone" messages.
Adjust some log message severities. (More changes needed.)
Add 'blkdevname' and 'blkdevs_used' field to dmsetup info -c -o.
Add 'blkdevname' option to dmsetup ls --tree to see block device names.
Add '-o options' to dmsetup deps and ls to select device name type on output.
We want to keep this logic -
when LV is extend - extend the LV by at least given amount,
when LV is reduced - reduce the LV by at most given amount.
So for this the rounding needs to be used.
Current logic which seems to satisfy give rule is to round up all
extent values for LV resize upward except for values with '-' sign
that are round downward.
This patch also fixes the problem when lvextend --use-polices tried
to extend LV the by i.e. 20% - but the resulting 20% were smaller
the extent size thus before this patch no extension happened.
RAID is not like traditional LVM mirroring. LVM mirroring required failed
devices to be removed or the logical volume would simply hang. RAID arrays can
keep on running with failed devices. In fact, for RAID types other than RAID1,
removing a device would mean substituting an error target or converting to a
lower level RAID (e.g. RAID6 -> RAID5, or RAID4/5 to RAID0). Therefore, rather
than removing a failed device unconditionally and potentially allocating a
replacement, RAID allows the user to "replace" a device with a new one. This
approach is a 1-step solution vs the current 2-step solution.
example> lvconvert --replace <dev_to_remove> vg/lv [possible_replacement_PVs]
'--replace' can be specified more than once.
example> lvconvert --replace /dev/sdb1 --replace /dev/sdc1 vg/lv
Any documentation less-detailed than Documentation/device-mapper is
dangerous for the non-trivial ctr lines. And anyway, this should be in s4
not here.
Use standard manpage style.
Keep options and commands in alphabetic order.
Added at least a very simply info about some other targets.
TODO: documenting targest needs far more work...
Split syntax for thin-pool since it cannot be fully matched with snapshot.
So to avoid more confusion - take thin support into separate line.
Though still significant updates are needed for thin provisioning.
Read 2 environmental vars to learn about overide position for
CLVMD and LVM binaries.
We support LVM_BINARY in other script - and this way we could easily
test restart in our test-suite.
Bugfix:
Add (most probably unfinished) support for -E arg with list of exclusive
locks. (During clvmd restart all exclusive locks would have been lost and
in fact, if there would have been an exclusive lock, usage text would be
printed and clvmd exits.)
Instead of parsing list options multiple times every time some lock UUID is
checked - put them straight into the hash table - make the code easier to
understand as well.
Remove was_ex_lock() function (replaced with dm_hash_lookup()).
Swap return value for get_initial_state() (1 means success).
Update man pages and usage info for -E option.
