Public bug reported:
Release: Ubuntu Hardy Server AMD64,
Package: LVM2, 2.02.26.1ubuntu9
With very large devices (here a 16x500G disk hardware RAID6 device),
pvdisplay obviously reports the wrong size with TB untis:
I would expect 6920 GB of free space. When I run "sudo pvdisplay --units G":
--- Physical volume ---
PV Name /dev/sdb2
VG Name master
PV Size 6919,74 GB / not usable 0,00 GB
Allocatable yes
PE Size (KByte) 4096
Total PE 1649794
Free PE 1387221
Allocated PE 262573
PV UUID ZLD2UJ-9z0W-N8ZK-XMcY-FVxz-xU4f-DiiSIU
This is fine. But when I run "sudo pvdisplay":
--- Physical volume ---
PV Name /dev/sdb2
VG Name master
PV Size 6,29 TB / not usable 1,14 MB
Allocatable yes
PE Size (KByte) 4096
Total PE 1649794
Free PE 1387221
Allocated PE 262573
PV UUID ZLD2UJ-9z0W-N8ZK-XMcY-FVxz-xU4f-DiiSIU
So, the digits after the decimal point ("6,29 TB") are in the wrong
order. This caused me some confusion...
