Jonathan Earl Brassow 2016-08-30 15:23:43 UTC Doc Text Available in RHEL7.3 is the ability to cache ThinDataLVs. (Refer to the lvmthin(7) man page for more information on ThinDataLVs.) This brings caching benefits to all the thin logical volumes associated with a particular thin-pool. However, when thin-pools are setup in this way, it is not currently possible to grow the thin-pool without removing the cache layer first. This also means that thin-pool auto-grow features are unavailable. Users should take care to monitor the fullness and consumption rate of their thin-pools to avoid running out of space.
