RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Corey Marthaler 2014-08-07 19:31:57 UTC 
Description of problem:
This is a super low priority rfe, but currently 'lv_converting' only reports the conversion of existing mirrors to greater legged mirrors. It does not report the conversion of linears -> mirrors, raids, or the down conversion of mirrors or raid volumes.

Comment 2 Peter Rajnoha 2015-10-15 12:31:59 UTC 
The issue here is that the LV_CONVERTING flag is only used in subset of situations where the conversion actually happens (maybe the LV_CONVERTING is not the happiest name for the flag), not covering the downconversion and conversion from linear to mirror/raid.

We need more than looking at the LV_CONVERTING flag when reporting the lv_converting field. I haven't looked at the code around yet so I'm not yet sure how straightforward the change is here but I suppose we should be able to tell which LV is now being changed.

I'm acking this one, but considering the low priority of this issue, it may end up postponed if preemted by any other priority work that appears.
