similar to: Move Windows within an LV to another pv safely

Using CentOS 5.4 Xen Virtualization "stock install" Added rpmforge NTFS extension for mount command. Scenario: Have mirror dd'd off to "backup" unmounted LV contained Windows machine. Within the LVM volume are two NTFS partitions formatted by Win2k8. Issue: How can I mount this? I need to verify file existence and run batch of file compare checks. If I try to mount

hello all, Hoping for some help on copying Logical Volumes. I would like to copy an existing LV to a newly formed LV. I don't want to do a snapshot of an existing LV. Only way I've seen is to mount the to LV and: mount /dev/vg00/lv00 /mnt/orig mount /dev/vg00/lv01 /mnt/copy cd /mnt/orig tar cf - ./ |(cd /mnt/copy; tar xf - ) Is there a LV tool to do this? Or an option used with

Hi All. Looking for some guidance/experience with LVM and pvmove. I have a LUN/PV being presented from a iscsi SAN. The LUN/PV is presented to 5 servers as a shared VG they all have LV's they use for data, they are all connected via iSCSI. As the SAN I am using is being replaced I need to move onto a new unit. My migration strategy at this time is to 1. Present a new LUN from the new SAN

Dear All, I plan to replace an error disk that is part of an LV. from LVM how-to it could be done with using pvmove to move all PE from old disk to new disk.But the howto also said that pvmove is slow. Anyone has experience using pvmove on 2TB disk? Is it possible to make all PE on the old disk empty so I don't have to do pvmove (assuming that I can make a free space >= 2TB). Thank you in

Dear James, Thank you for being quick to help. Yes, I could see all of them: # vgs # lvs # pvs Regards, Khem On Sat, February 28, 2015 7:37 am, James A.

Dear All, I am in desperate need for LVM data rescue for my server. I have an VG call vg_hosting consisting of 4 PVs each contained in a separate hard drive (/dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdc1, and /dev/sdd1). And this LV: lv_home was created to use all the space of the 4 PVs. Right now, the third hard drive is damaged; and therefore the third PV (/dev/sdc1) cannot be accessed anymore. I would like

Are there any ways to improve/manage the speed of pvmove? Man doesn't show any documented switches for priority scheduling. Iostat shows the system way underutilized even though the lv whose pe's are being migrated is continuously being written (slowly) to. Thanks! jlc

Dear all, I have a 4,1TB Logical volume consist of four disks with size of 2TB, 1TB, 1TB, and 500GB. The LV currently full. I plan to change the 1Tb disks and 500Gb disks. I plan to remove one 1TB disk or the 500GB so that I can replace it with 2TB disk. most LVM tutorial ask to use pvmove to move phisical extent to the new disk. The problem is that I have no SATA port left so that I can't

Hi guys, I need to move an lvm based domU from one dom0 to another dom0. How do you guys do ths? xm save/restore doesnt have the option to specify lvm target as the storage.

If I add VG with some other lv-s to libvirt pool then libvirt slow responding. How to fix it? <pool type='logical'> <name>LVM_MAIN</name> <uuid>a2713bed-ad4a-fb79-83b5-65a9e8f1094e</uuid> <capacity>0</capacity> <allocation>0</allocation> <available>0</available> <source>

This one has me stumped and I'm sure I must be missing something trivial. What is is eludes me. I have a 20G drive that will be replaced with a 160G drive. The /boot partition is just a standard type 83, and the swap is an 82. The system root partition is in a LV, as is the /home partition. I've upgraded hard drives dozens of times without incident, but never ona system with LVM.

I am planning to increase the disk space on my desktop system. It is running CentOS 5.9 w/XEN. I have two 160Gig 2.5" laptop (2.5") SATA drives in two slots of a 4-slot hot swap bay configured like this: Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End

As far as I can tell, this is because in the dracut boot process, the device backing VolGroup is activated, but the device backing BackupGroup is not.? As a
