[Bug 120364] Re: lvm doesn't document -m option
Sorry, I wanted to write the manual page of lvcreate (the pvcreate man page does not, of course). Which, however, documents the -m / --mirrors option properly in my opinion. I mark this issue fixed, as we have a proper manual page in Gutsy. This bug, however does not seem appropriate to backport. ** Changed in: lvm2 (Ubuntu) Assignee: Áron Sisak = (unassigned) Status: Needs Info = Fix Released -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 120364] Re: lvm doesn't document -m option
I mark this issue fixed, as we have a proper manual page in Gutsy. s/have/will have/ ? I'm a bit surprised by this, as I presume I am not the only one who run a Ubuntu *release* on my production systems, and not a beta version. I realize this is not a security or otherwise crucial issue, but on the other hand, the fix (adding a few lines to the man page) should be harmless in the extreme. And I notice we still don't have an answer as to what status LVM mirroring has in Edgy or Feisty, and whether it is stable enough to use instead of md mirroring... -k -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for reporting this issue. What exactly do you mean by is not documented? I think the manual page for pvcreate is very straightforward in documenting the -m, --mirrors option. ** Changed in: lvm2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Áron Sisak Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 120364] Re: lvm doesn't document -m option
Well, first of all the mirror option is in lvcreate command, not the pvcreate command. And the lvcreate man page installed in feisty doesn't say a word about the mirror (-m) flag. As stated in the bug report, lvcreate --help does show the option. That's exactly what I mean by not documented option. ;) Thanks for your answer. -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 120364] Re: lvm doesn't document -m option
Just a me too. I think it's very confusing having the wrong doc (old one) for lvm2. On top of that it is not easy to find info about the raid1 mirror setup through LVM instead of madm. I also find it more intuitive to mirror through LVM (like in other OSs, as AIX) than with mdadm. I know this is definitely not the place to ask for info, but do you know if this raid1 mirror in LVM works OK? Is the dm-mirror module in the initramfs, ie, will my system boot if I place / and /boot under this type of mirror? -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 120364] Re: lvm doesn't document -m option
I see from bug #119364 that this isn't enabled. I'll happily add my voice to the chorus requesting this, but in *any case* I think it should be documented. -- lvm doesn't document -m option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
