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 2018-04-30 15:37:25 UTC 
Description of problem:
According to the verification criteria in bugs 1439403 and 1525661, LVM should have automatically taken "the first step" towards raid10 instead of just giving the user a list of possible options. 


[root@host-086 ~]# lvcreate --type raid5 -i 3 -L 100M -n lv vg
  Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
  Rounding size 100.00 MiB (25 extents) up to stripe boundary size 108.00 MiB(27 extents).
  Logical volume "lv" created.

# This cmd should prompt the user and go to raid5_n as the "first step"
[root@host-086 ~]# lvconvert --yes --type raid10 vg/lv
  Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
  Replaced LV type raid10 (same as raid10_near) with possible type raid0_meta.
  Repeat this command to convert to raid10 after an interim conversion has finished.
  Unable to convert LV vg/lv from raid5 to raid0_meta.
  Converting vg/lv from raid5 (same as raid5_ls) is directly possible to the following layouts:
    raid5_n
    raid5_la
    raid5_ra
    raid5_rs
    raid6_ls_6

[root@host-086 ~]# lvconvert --yes --type raid10 vg/lv
  Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
  Replaced LV type raid10 (same as raid10_near) with possible type raid0_meta.
  Repeat this command to convert to raid10 after an interim conversion has finished.
  Unable to convert LV vg/lv from raid5 to raid0_meta.
  Converting vg/lv from raid5 (same as raid5_ls) is directly possible to the following layouts:
    raid5_n
    raid5_la
    raid5_ra
    raid5_rs
    raid6_ls_6

[root@host-086 ~]# lvconvert --yes --type raid5_n vg/lv
  Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
  Converting raid5 (same as raid5_ls) LV vg/lv to raid5_n.
  Logical volume vg/lv successfully converted.

## Now, it takes the "first step" (raid0_meta) automatically
[root@host-086 ~]# lvconvert --yes --type raid10 vg/lv
  Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
  Replaced LV type raid10 (same as raid10_near) with possible type raid0_meta.
  Repeat this command to convert to raid10 after an interim conversion has finished.

lvm2 upstream commit bd7cdd0b09ba123b064937fddde08daacbed7dab
Comment 5 Corey Marthaler 2018-08-13 16:36:11 UTC 
Fix verified in the latest rpms. LVM now takes the interim steps automatically instead of just offering the user possible interim steps.
