.TH CLVMD 8 "LVM TOOLS" "Red Hat Inc" \" -*- nroff -*-

.SH NAME

clvmd \- cluster LVM daemon
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B clvmd
|
|
[\-d] [\-h]
|
|
[\-R]
|
|
[\-t <timeout>]
|
|
[\-T <start timeout>]
|
|
[\-V]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
clvmd is the daemon that distributes LVM metadata updates around a cluster.
|
|
It must be running on all nodes in the cluster and will give an error
|
|
if a node in the cluster does not have this daemon running.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-d
|
|
Runs in the foreground and prints debugging information (if compiled in) to
|
|
stderr. By default, clvmd will fork into the background when invoked.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-t <timeout>
|
|
Specifies the timeout for commands to run around the cluster. This should not
|
|
be so small that commands with many disk updates to do will fail, so you
|
|
may need to increase this on systems with very large disk farms.
|
|
The default is 30 seconds.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-T <start timeout>
|
|
Specifies the timeout for clvmd daemon startup. If the daemon does not report
|
|
that it has started up within this time then the parent command will exit with
|
|
status of 5. This does NOT mean that clvmd has not started! What it means is
|
|
that the startup of clvmd has been delayed for some reason; the most likely
|
|
cause of this is an inquorate cluster though it could be due to locking
|
|
latencies on a cluster with large numbers of logical volumes. If you get the
|
|
return code of 5 it is usually not necessary to restart clvmd - it will start
|
|
as soon as that blockage has cleared. This flag is to allow startup scripts
|
|
to exit in a timely fashion even if the cluster is stalled for some reason.
|
|
<br>
|
|
The default is 0 (no timeout) and the value is in seconds. Don't set this too
|
|
small or you will experience spurious errors. 10 or 20 seconds might be
|
|
sensible.
|
|
<br>
|
|
This timeout will be ignored if you start clvmd with the -d switch.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-R
|
|
Tells all the running clvmd in the cluster to reload their device cache and
|
|
re-read the lvm configuration file. This command should be run whenever the
|
|
devices on a cluster system are changed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-V
|
|
Display the version of the cluster LVM daemon.
