Comment 4 Corey Marthaler 2010-11-08 16:22:33 EST

The basic inactive lvconvert to mirror now works, still running all the other newly added test cases as a result of this bug...

[root@taft-01 ~]# lvs -a -o +devices
  LV       VG         Attr   LSize   Copy%  Devices
  volume   taft       -wi--- 500.00M        /dev/sdb1(0)

[root@taft-01 ~]# lvconvert -m+1 taft/volume /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1
  Conversion starts after activation.

[root@taft-01 ~]# lvchange -ay taft/volume

[root@taft-01 ~]# lvs -a -o +devices

Comment 5 Corey Marthaler 2010-11-08 18:04:42 EST

The test cases for the lv conversion of inactive mirrors/linears eventually ends up failing due to issue 591710. However, the basic functionality works. Marking verified.

lvconvert --mirrorlog disk -m 1 centipede/centi_base /dev/sdb3
sufficient pvs convert case failed on grant-01
  Unable to determine mirror sync status of centipede/centi_base_mlog.
  Unable to remove primary mirror image while mirror is not in-sync
