. Add "monitoring" option to "activation" section of lvm.conf
. Have clvmd consult the lvm.conf "activation/monitoring" too.
. Introduce toollib.c:get_activation_monitoring_mode().
. Error out when both --monitor and --ignoremonitoring are provided.
. Add --monitor and --ignoremonitoring support to lvcreate. Update
lvcreate man page accordingly.
. Clarify that '--monitor' controls the start and stop of monitoring in
the {vg,lv}change man pages.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
lvchange allows you to change the attributes of a logical volume
|
|
including making them known to the kernel ready for use.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
See \fBlvm\fP for common options.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-a, \-\-available y|n|ey|en|ly|ln
|
|
Controls the availability of the logical volumes for use.
|
|
Communicates with the kernel device-mapper driver via
|
|
libdevmapper to activate (-ay) or deactivate (-an) the
|
|
logical volumes.
|
|
.IP
|
|
If clustered locking is enabled, -aey will activate exclusively
|
|
on one node and -aly will activate only on the local node.
|
|
To deactivate only on the local node use -aln.
|
|
Logical volumes with single-host snapshots are always activated
|
|
exclusively because they can only be used on one node at once.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-C, \-\-contiguous y|n
|
|
Tries to set or reset the contiguous allocation policy for
|
|
logical volumes. It's only possible to change a non-contiguous
|
|
logical volume's allocation policy to contiguous, if all of the
|
|
allocated physical extents are already contiguous.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-resync
|
|
Forces the complete resynchronization of a mirror. In normal
|
|
circumstances you should not need this option because synchronization
|
|
happens automatically. Data is read from the primary mirror device
|
|
and copied to the others, so this can take a considerable amount of
|
|
time - and during this time you are without a complete redundant copy
|
|
of your data.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-minor minor
|
|
Set the minor number.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-monitor y|n
|
|
Start or stop monitoring a mirrored or snapshot logical volume with
|
|
dmeventd, if it is installed.
|
|
If a device used by a monitored mirror reports an I/O error,
|
|
the failure is handled according to
|
|
\fBmirror_image_fault_policy\fP and \fBmirror_log_fault_policy\fP
|
|
set in \fBlvm.conf\fP.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-poll y|n
|
|
Without polling a logical volume's backgrounded transformation process
|
|
will never complete. If there is an incomplete pvmove or lvconvert (for
|
|
example, on rebooting after a crash), use \fB--poll y\fP to restart the
|
|
process from its last checkpoint. However, it may not be appropriate to
|
|
immediately poll a logical volume when it is activated, use \fB--poll
|
|
n\fP to defer and then \fB--poll y\fP to restart the process.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-noudevsync
|
|
Disable udev synchronisation. The
|
|
process will not wait for notification from udev.
|
|
It will continue irrespective of any possible udev processing
|
|
in the background. You should only use this if udev is not running
|
|
or has rules that ignore the devices LVM2 creates.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-ignoremonitoring
|
|
Make no attempt to interact with dmeventd unless \-\-monitor
|
|
is specified.
|
|
Do not use this if dmeventd is already monitoring a device.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-M, \-\-persistent y|n
|
|
Set to y to make the minor number specified persistent.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-p, \-\-permission r|rw
|
|
Change access permission to read-only or read/write.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-r, \-\-readahead ReadAheadSectors|auto|none
|
|
Set read ahead sector count of this logical volume.
|
|
For volume groups with metadata in lvm1 format, this must
|
|
be a value between 2 and 120 sectors.
|
|
The default value is "auto" which allows the kernel to choose
|
|
a suitable value automatically.
|
|
"None" is equivalent to specifying zero.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I \-\-refresh
|
|
If the logical volume is active, reload its metadata.
|
|
This is not necessary in normal operation, but may be useful
|
|
if something has gone wrong or if you're doing clustering
|
|
manually without a clustered lock manager.
|
|
.SH Examples
|
|
"lvchange -pr vg00/lvol1" changes the permission on
|
|
volume lvol1 in volume group vg00 to be read-only.
