Those warning lines are pretty confusing for users. I wouldn't even print "if everything works..." - if things don't work, then give the user clear instructions on the next steps. Needs cleanup... Something more like this, I think: WARNING: Sum of all thin volume sizes (200.00 MiB) exceeds the size of thin pools (20.00 MiB). WARNING: You have not turned on protection against thin pools running out of space. WARNING: Set activation/thin_pool_autoextend_threshold below 100 to trigger automatic extension of thin pools before they get full. WARNING: Set activation/thin_pool_autoextend_percent above 0 to specify by how much to extend thin pools reaching the threshold. WARNING: LV vg1/lvol1_meta9 holds a backup of the unrepaired metadata. Use lvremove when no longer required. WARNING: New metadata LV vg1/lvol1_tmeta might use different PVs. Move it with pvmove if required. https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2017-October/msg00020.html https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commitdiff;h=22789563dec6d470a48e728305e6e0a92ff92a9f;hp=3a639d81445a00974c5ccfd877a197adf5607b22 It is correct to always leave a *pmspare volume available. Each repair uses up one pmspare volume, and if there is enough space, it makes a new one ready for any future repair to use. I've no idea why your 'before' didn't do this, but it was wrong. One question I have... Is this fix to: A. "not give pvmove warning if same pv is being used for new metadata volume"? or B. "not give pvmove warning if the VG in which the pool resides only has one PV"? The subject states A, but the fix appears to be for B. If this is for B, then I think we need to change the subject of this bug to reflect that. # One PV in VG (No pvmove warning) [root@host-079 ~]# pvscan PV /dev/sdb1 VG snapper_thinp lvm2 [24.98 GiB / 24.98 GiB free] [root@host-079 ~]# lvconvert --yes --repair snapper_thinp/POOL WARNING: Disabling lvmetad cache for repair command.

Verified no pvmove message happens now in that case. Any other scenario, with multiple PVs in the VG, will result in a pvmove warning regardless of whether or not the meta device moved.
