   1688      1.1  haad   Update autoconf files.
   1689      1.1  haad   Add sysfs block device filtering for 2.6 kernels.
   1690      1.1  haad   Update refs for move to sources.redhat.com.

   1693      1.1  haad =========================
   1694      1.1  haad Some bug fixes & minor enhancements, including:
   1695      1.1  haad   Backwards compatibility with LVM1 metadata improved.
   1696      1.1  haad   Missing man pages written.
   1697      1.1  haad   Tool error codes made more consistent.
   1698      1.1  haad   vgmknodes written.
   1699      1.1  haad   O_DIRECT can be turned off if it doesn't work in your kernel.
   1700      1.1  haad   dumpconfig to display the active configuration file
   1701      1.1  haad 
   1702      1.1  haad You need to update libdevmapper before using 'vgmknodes' or 'vgscan --mknodes'.
   1703      1.1  haad If your root filesystem is on an LV, you should run one of those two
   1704      1.1  haad commands to fix up the special files in /dev in your real root filesystem
   1705      1.1  haad after finishing with your initrd.  Also, remember you can use
   1706      1.1  haad 'vgchange --ignorelockingfailure' on your initrd if the tool fails because
   1707      1.1  haad it can't write a lock file to a read-only filesystem.
   1708      1.1  haad 
   1709      1.1  haad Wednesday 30th April 2003
   1710      1.1  haad =========================
   1711      1.1  haad A pvmove implementation is now available for the new metadata format.
   1712      1.1  haad 
   1713      1.1  haad When running a command that allocates space (e.g. lvcreate), you can now
   1714      1.1  haad restrict not only which disk(s) may be used but also the Physical Extents
   1715      1.1  haad on those disks.  e.g. lvcreate -L 10 vg1 /dev/hda6:1000-2000:3000-4000

   1719      1.1  haad ========================
   1720      1.1  haad 
   1721      1.1  haad The new format of LVM metadata is ready for you to test!
   1722      1.1  haad   We expect it to be more efficient and more robust than the original format.
   1723      1.1  haad   It's more compact and supports transactional changes and replication.
   1724      1.1  haad   Should things go wrong on a system, it's human-readable (and editable).
   1725      1.1  haad 
   1726      1.1  haad Please report any problems you find to the mailing list,
   1727      1.1  haad linux-lvm (a] sistina.com.  The software has NOT yet been thoroughly
   1728      1.1  haad tested and so quite possibly there'll still be some bugs in it.
   1729      1.1  haad Be aware of the disclaimer in the COPYING file.
   1730      1.1  haad 
   1731      1.1  haad While testing, we recommend turning logging on in the configuration file
   1732      1.1  haad to provide us with diagnostic information:
   1733      1.1  haad   log {
   1734      1.1  haad         file="/tmp/lvm2.log"
   1735      1.1  haad 	level=7
   1736      1.1  haad 	activation=1
   1737      1.1  haad   }
   1738      1.1  haad 
   1739      1.1  haad You should schedule regular backups of your configuration file and
   1740      1.1  haad metadata backups and archives (normally kept under /etc/lvm).
   1741      1.1  haad 
   1742      1.1  haad Please read docs/example.conf and "man lvm.conf" to find out more about
   1743      1.1  haad the configuration file.
   1744      1.1  haad 
   1745      1.1  haad To convert an existing volume group called vg1 to the new format using
   1746      1.1  haad the default settings, use "vgconvert -M2 vg1".  See "man vgconvert".
   1747      1.1  haad 
   1748      1.1  haad -M (or --metadatatype in its long form) is a new flag to indicate which
   1749      1.1  haad format of metadata the command should use for anything it creates.
   1750      1.1  haad Currently, the valid types are "lvm1" and "lvm2" and they can be
   1751      1.1  haad abbreviated to "1" and "2" respectively.  The default value for this
   1752      1.1  haad flag can be changed in the global section in the config file.
   1753      1.1  haad 
   1754      1.1  haad Backwards-compatible support for the original LVM1 metadata format is
   1755      1.1  haad maintained, but it can be moved into a shared library or removed
   1756      1.1  haad completely with configure's --with-lvm1 option.
   1757      1.1  haad 
   1758      1.1  haad Under LVM2, the basic unit of metadata is the volume group.  Different
   1759      1.1  haad volume groups can use different formats of metadata - vg1 could use
   1760      1.1  haad the original LVM1 format while vg2 used the new format - but you can't
   1761      1.1  haad mix formats within a volume group.  So to add a PV to an LVM2-format
   1762      1.1  haad volume group you must run "pvcreate -M2" on it, followed by "vgextend".
   1763      1.1  haad 
   1764      1.1  haad With LVM2-format metadata, lvextend will let you specify striping
   1765      1.1  haad parameters.  So an LV could consist of two or more "segments" - the
   1766      1.1  haad first segment could have 3 stripes while the second segment has just 2.
   1767      1.1  haad 
   1768      1.1  haad LVM2 maintains a backup of the current metadata for each volume group
   1769      1.1  haad in /etc/lvm/backup, and puts copies of previous versions in
   1770      1.1  haad /etc/lvm/archive.  "vgcfgbackup" and "vgcfgrestore" can be used to
   1771      1.1  haad create and restore from these files.  If you fully understand what
   1772      1.1  haad you're doing, metadata can be changed by editing a copy of a current
   1773      1.1  haad backup file and using vgcfgrestore to reload it.
   1774      1.1  haad 
   1775      1.1  haad Please read the pvcreate man page for more information on the new
   1776      1.1  haad format for metadata.
   1777      1.1  haad 
   1778      1.1  haad All tools that can change things have a --test flag which can be used
   1779      1.1  haad to check the effect  of a set of cmdline args without really making the
   1780      1.1  haad changes.
   1781      1.1  haad 
   1782      1.1  haad 
   1783      1.1  haad What's not finished?
   1784      1.1  haad ====================
   1785      1.1  haad The internal cache.  If you turn on debugging output you'll see lots of
   1786      1.1  haad repeated messages, many of which will eventually get optimised out.
   1787      1.1  haad 
   1788      1.1  haad --test sometimes causes a command to fail (e.g. vgconvert --test) even
   1789      1.1  haad though the real command would work: again, fixing this is waiting for
   1790      1.1  haad the work on the cache.
   1791      1.1  haad 
   1792      1.1  haad Several of the tools do not yet contain the logic to handle full
   1793      1.1  haad recovery: combinations of pvcreate and vgcfgrestore may sometimes be
   1794      1.1  haad needed to restore metadata if a tool gets interrupted or crashes or
   1795      1.1  haad finds something unexpected.  This applies particularly to tools that
   1796      1.1  haad work on more than one volume group at once (e.g. vgsplit).
   1797      1.1  haad 
   1798      1.1  haad Display output.  Some metadata information cannot yet be displayed.
   1799      1.1  haad 
   1800      1.1  haad Recovery tools to salvage "lost" metadata directly from the disks:
   1801      1.1  haad but we hope the new format will mean such tools are hardly ever needed!
