Description Marian Csontos 2021-05-14 12:04:34 UTC

lvm2 upstream is constantly fixing bugs, so we should move to the latest version.

Lvm2 releases should be compatible with previous versions, except where:

- operations not working correctly are disabled,
- confirm is required for certain dangerous actions.

There are two new features though:

- default use of device file for filtering devices for PVs.
- metadata based auto activation.

Anything else will be treated as a bug.

*Device file*

When on devices file is used to filter devices which are scanned for PVs.
Devices file can be overridden by --devicesfile on command line.

Two new commands to manipulate devices file - lvmdevices(8) and
vgimportdevices(8), and new configuration options in devices section:
use_devicesfile, devicesfile and search_for_devnames.

When devices file is used for filtering the filters in lvm.conf are not used - the exact device list is used.

*Metadata based autoactivation*

Auto activation based on metadata property for LVs and VGs set in lvcreate/vgcreate using --setautoactivation option and modified by lvchange/vgchange.

This allows skipping auto-activation for whole VG or particular LVs.

Marking Verified:Tested,SanityOnly based on current cursory rhel9 beta regression testing.
