Description

Tentatively targeting for 4.1.3, let's see how risky/risk-free this is. Testing this change:
1. Perform a cold merge of internal volume
2. Activate the merged volume
lvchange -ay vgname/lvname
Activate also the next volumes in this chain, if this is not the base volume
3. Run qemu-img check on this volume:
qemu-img check --output json /dev/vgname/lvname
Example:
# qemu-img check test.qcow2 --output json
{
"image-end-offset": 262144,
"total-clusters": 163840,
"check-errors": 0,
"filename": "test.qcow2",
"format": "qcow2"
}
The actual size of the image is the image-end-offset value.
4. Check the size of the lv
lvs -o size --units m vgname/lvname
The actual size of the lv should be this value rounded up to the next
extent (128m).
In this example, the lv size should be 128.00m.
