filesystems then. Please note, I have not lost data related to issues with LVM. I have, in the distant past, lost data related to issues with filesystems. Because of the latter, I rely on a combination of RAID-subsystems with LVM on top and reliable backups :) -- Joost Roeleveld

rashing because half the swap dissappears suddenly because of a drive failure? There actually is only 1 system that I use regularly with a RAID-0 partition.

Re: [gentoo-user] How to change from one harddrive to software raid

rting" that causes the memory leak. Also, when just wanting to "empty" one physical volume, it is not necessary to specify the "target". It's a good idea to mark the PVs on the existing drive "non-allocatable". Then LVM won't try to move anything to that PV: # pvchange -xn /dev/sda3 The rest of the steps read correct. It's how I did a similar operation, but still double-check all the parameters and when in doubt, read the manual and/or ask on the list. -- Joost Roeleveld

Re: [gentoo-user] LVM (Was: the best filesystem for server: XFS or JFS (or?))

nto a known issue (which can easily be worked around) where pvmove has a memory-leak with the reporting. (eg. the bit that checks the progress every 5 seconds, reducing that to every 5 minutes significantly reduces that) However, I do believe this (mem-leak) was fixed. Am curious what the result will be of that. Please note, I do not run masked (~amd64) kernels. Kind regards, Joost Roeleveld
