...lock-attach it to the Dom0 and then mount it, you get 1/10th the speed. we are running CentOS 5.1, kernel 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5 full writeup: We noted that the performance of mirrored logical volumes accessed through xenblk was about 1/10th that of non-mirrored LVs, or of LVs mirrored with the --corelog option. Mirrored LVs performed fine when accessed normally within the dom0, but performance dropped when accessed via xm block-attach. This was, to our minds, ridiculous. First, we created two logical volumes in the volume group "test": one with mirroring and a mirror log and one with...

...I use local LVM for my virtual disks with DRBD on top to mirror the disk to a backup server. If I change grub.conf to increase RAM disk size and increase host RAM, I could create a 35G RAM disk. I'd modify rc.local to add pvcreate /dev/ramdisk vgextend vg /dev/ramdisk lvconvert -m 1 --corelog vg/lv_database /dev/ramdisk Even with lv_database being 35G, it doesn't take long to activate the mirror. I haven't decided where to put the commands to turn off the lvm mirror. lvconvert -m 0 vg/lv_database vgreduce vg /dev/ramdisk pvremove /dev/ramdisk I haven't put this i...

I'm pulling my hair out trying to setup a mirrored logical volume. lvconvert tells me I don't have enough free space, even though I have hundreds of gigabytes free on both physical volumes. Command: lvconvert -m1 /dev/vg1/iscsi_deeds_data Insufficient suitable allocatable extents for logical volume : 10240 more required Any ideas? Thanks!, Gordon Here's the output from the
