Dear LVM users,
The lvmraid documentation says the following: "To work around some limitations,
it is possible to remove integrity from the LV, make the change, then add
integrity again. (Integrity metadata would need to initialized when added
again.) ... The following are not yet permitted on RAID LVs with integrity:
lvreduce, pvmove, snapshots, splitmirror, raid syncaction commands, raid
rebuild."
Does this mean that RAID rebuilds can only be done with integrity temporarily
turned off? This seems risky given that rebuilds are often when RAID arrays
undergo the most stress and are thus vulnerable to failures/errors (namely, for
parity RAID). Additionally, is the suggested workaround for snapshots to
temporarily turn off integrity when taking/using snapshots?
Thank you!
-CG
