Jul 24 05:56:08 taft-04 dmeventd[4274]: Monitoring mirror device, vg-mirror for
events
Comment 1 Jonathan Earl Brassow 2006-11-27 23:36:02 UTC 
the crappy part about that is that the monitoring program may reconfigure the
mirror (in the event of a failure) before exiting itself, thus giving you
something like:

taft-04 dmeventd[4274]: Monitoring mirror device, vg-mirror for events
taft-04 dmeventd[4274]: Monitoring mirror device, vg-mirror for events
taft-04 dmeventd[4274]: Unmonitoring mirror device, vg-mirror for events

Just be careful when coding this, and be sure to test the failure scenario...
Comment 2 Milan Broz 2007-02-05 15:40:01 UTC 
There is some message already in mirror DSO

Feb  5 15:52:17 vmware199 dmeventd[18937]: Monitoring mirror device
vg_test-lv_test for events
Feb  5 15:52:27 vmware199 lvm[18937]: vg_test-lv_test is now in-sync
Feb  5 15:52:44 vmware199 lvm[18937]: No longer monitoring mirror device
vg_test-lv_test for events

Marking this bug as modified but I am not sure if this message is displayed
correctly in every cases (during reconfigurstion)...
Comment 3 Corey Marthaler 2007-04-23 19:55:51 UTC 
The message is in there:

Apr 23 10:18:45 link-08 lvm[9886]: No longer monitoring mirror device VG-mirror
for events

Marking verified.
