Description Alasdair Kergon 2012-05-01 16:36:13 UTC

Autoextend config options for snapshots and thin pools support percentages.

However, for some uses, it's likely to be preferable to extend by the same fixed amount each time.  (E.g. With a constant, acceptable, growth rate.)

Comment 2 Alasdair Kergon 2012-05-01 17:04:23 UTC

Might need to revisit kernel target notification parameters/granularity.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2012-05-05 04:17:10 UTC

Since RHEL 6.3 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 08:24:53 UTC

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:58:10 UTC

This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 6 Tom Lavigne 2012-09-07 15:22:36 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for 
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Since we are unable to provide this feature at this time,  
it has been proposed for the next release of 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 7 Jonathan Earl Brassow 2015-10-15 15:01:03 UTC

moving this futurefeature to rhel7
