I also consider this bug "serious", as the default mode should be
"writethrough" according to the man page, but due to this bug it
defaults to "writeback" and it stays "writeback" even if you specify it
differently. Also it is not easy to find out what the actual mode is. So
users might end up with writeback caches on non-redundant cache-storage,
which is going to lead to disaster.

Please upgrade to an upstream version that has the fix. Thanks!!




Yes cache support was new  at 111 age - so purely experimental.

For cache usage - newer version of lvm2 is basically mandatory.
No one is going to backport cache fixes in 2.02.111.
Close bug as problem is fixed in newer releases.
