hi users,

must be an easy one - what should be(is allowed to do) filesystem doing while there is a pvmove(failed hard disk) taking place in underlying LV?

many thanks,

Hi,

pvmove is generally transparent to the layers above, so you can continue using the system as usual while a pvmove is in progress. While I have never seen pvmove actually fail (My desktop encountered a power failure mid-operation once, and it just continued as if nothing had happened after rebooting), with a failing hard disk, I would avoid any additional IO while the operation is in progress.


ok, thanks
maybe a bit more tricky, would now downsizing a FS be one thing OK to do(probably also fsck) ? while pvmove is working?
furthermore, would lvreduce be OK to take pvmote out of a LV ?

I have a bit of puzzle type of situation here to deal with - started pvmove but seems that HDD is rather in a bad condition for after two days pvmove is barely at 4%. Should I let it finish - or - abort pvmove and try fsck; fsreduce; lvreduce..
hmmm..
