Hi,
pvmove seems to refuse to move PEs from one place on a PV to another
place on the same PV:

Do you really want to remove active logical volume "foo"? [y/n]: y
Logical volume "foo" successfully removed
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# pvmove -v /dev/md2:88831 /dev/md2:88832
Finding volume group "r"
No extents available for allocation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks to me like pvmove marks the source physical volume
unallocatable and then searches for free space on any destination
physical volume. Normaly that is the right thing to do but not when
the source PV is also a destination PV, or more generaly only if no
destination PVs are given.
