f74d51d9 AK |
1942 | Friday 14th November 2003 |
1943 | ========================= | |
1944 | Some bug fixes & minor enhancements, including: | |
1945 | Backwards compatibility with LVM1 metadata improved. | |
1946 | Missing man pages written. | |
1947 | Tool error codes made more consistent. | |
1948 | vgmknodes written. | |
1949 | O_DIRECT can be turned off if it doesn't work in your kernel. | |
b2bb7264 | 1950 | dumpconfig to display the active configuration file |
f74d51d9 AK |
1951 | |
1952 | You need to update libdevmapper before using 'vgmknodes' or 'vgscan --mknodes'. | |
1953 | If your root filesystem is on an LV, you should run one of those two | |
57015b12 | 1954 | commands to fix up the special files in /dev in your real root filesystem |
f74d51d9 AK |
1955 | after finishing with your initrd. Also, remember you can use |
1956 | 'vgchange --ignorelockingfailure' on your initrd if the tool fails because | |
1957 | it can't write a lock file to a read-only filesystem. | |
1958 | ||
541f8753 AK |
1959 | Wednesday 30th April 2003 |
1960 | ========================= | |
1961 | A pvmove implementation is now available for the new metadata format. | |
1962 | ||
1963 | When running a command that allocates space (e.g. lvcreate), you can now | |
57015b12 | 1964 | restrict not only which disk(s) may be used but also the Physical Extents |
541f8753 AK |
1965 | on those disks. e.g. lvcreate -L 10 vg1 /dev/hda6:1000-2000:3000-4000 |
1966 | ||
1967 | ||
1968 | Monday 18th November 2002 | |
5a52dca9 AK |
1969 | ======================== |
1970 | ||
1971 | The new format of LVM metadata is ready for you to test! | |
1972 | We expect it to be more efficient and more robust than the original format. | |
1973 | It's more compact and supports transactional changes and replication. | |
1974 | Should things go wrong on a system, it's human-readable (and editable). | |
1975 | ||
57015b12 | 1976 | Please report any problems you find to the mailing list, |
5a52dca9 AK |
1977 | linux-lvm@sistina.com. The software has NOT yet been thoroughly |
1978 | tested and so quite possibly there'll still be some bugs in it. | |
1979 | Be aware of the disclaimer in the COPYING file. | |
1980 | ||
57015b12 | 1981 | While testing, we recommend turning logging on in the configuration file |
5a52dca9 AK |
1982 | to provide us with diagnostic information: |
1983 | log { | |
1984 | file="/tmp/lvm2.log" | |
541f8753 | 1985 | level=7 |
5518374b | 1986 | activation=1 |
5a52dca9 AK |
1987 | } |
1988 | ||
1989 | You should schedule regular backups of your configuration file and | |
1990 | metadata backups and archives (normally kept under /etc/lvm). | |
1991 | ||
57015b12 | 1992 | Please read docs/example.conf and "man lvm.conf" to find out more about |
5a52dca9 AK |
1993 | the configuration file. |
1994 | ||
1995 | To convert an existing volume group called vg1 to the new format using | |
1996 | the default settings, use "vgconvert -M2 vg1". See "man vgconvert". | |
1997 | ||
1998 | -M (or --metadatatype in its long form) is a new flag to indicate which | |
1999 | format of metadata the command should use for anything it creates. | |
2000 | Currently, the valid types are "lvm1" and "lvm2" and they can be | |
2001 | abbreviated to "1" and "2" respectively. The default value for this | |
2002 | flag can be changed in the global section in the config file. | |
2003 | ||
2004 | Backwards-compatible support for the original LVM1 metadata format is | |
2005 | maintained, but it can be moved into a shared library or removed | |
2006 | completely with configure's --with-lvm1 option. | |
2007 | ||
2008 | Under LVM2, the basic unit of metadata is the volume group. Different | |
2009 | volume groups can use different formats of metadata - vg1 could use | |
2010 | the original LVM1 format while vg2 used the new format - but you can't | |
2011 | mix formats within a volume group. So to add a PV to an LVM2-format | |
2012 | volume group you must run "pvcreate -M2" on it, followed by "vgextend". | |
2013 | ||
2014 | With LVM2-format metadata, lvextend will let you specify striping | |
2015 | parameters. So an LV could consist of two or more "segments" - the | |
2016 | first segment could have 3 stripes while the second segment has just 2. | |
2017 | ||
2018 | LVM2 maintains a backup of the current metadata for each volume group | |
2019 | in /etc/lvm/backup, and puts copies of previous versions in | |
2020 | /etc/lvm/archive. "vgcfgbackup" and "vgcfgrestore" can be used to | |
57015b12 | 2021 | create and restore from these files. If you fully understand what |
5a52dca9 AK |
2022 | you're doing, metadata can be changed by editing a copy of a current |
2023 | backup file and using vgcfgrestore to reload it. | |
2024 | ||
2025 | Please read the pvcreate man page for more information on the new | |
2026 | format for metadata. | |
2027 | ||
2028 | All tools that can change things have a --test flag which can be used | |
2029 | to check the effect of a set of cmdline args without really making the | |
2030 | changes. | |
2031 | ||
2032 | ||
2033 | What's not finished? | |
2034 | ==================== | |
2035 | The internal cache. If you turn on debugging output you'll see lots of | |
914c9723 | 2036 | repeated messages, many of which will eventually get optimised out. |
5a52dca9 | 2037 | |
57015b12 JM |
2038 | --test sometimes causes a command to fail (e.g. vgconvert --test) even |
2039 | though the real command would work: again, fixing this is waiting for | |
5a52dca9 AK |
2040 | the work on the cache. |
2041 | ||
2042 | Several of the tools do not yet contain the logic to handle full | |
2043 | recovery: combinations of pvcreate and vgcfgrestore may sometimes be | |
2044 | needed to restore metadata if a tool gets interrupted or crashes or | |
2045 | finds something unexpected. This applies particularly to tools that | |
2046 | work on more than one volume group at once (e.g. vgsplit). | |
2047 | ||
2048 | Display output. Some metadata information cannot yet be displayed. | |
5a52dca9 AK |
2049 | |
2050 | Recovery tools to salvage "lost" metadata directly from the disks: | |
2051 | but we hope the new format will mean such tools are hardly ever needed! |
