--- Begin Message ---Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.44-3 Severity: important Hi, I had a VG (aya) on two PV (sda2 and sdd1) that I want to move to another disk. So I create a new PV on hdb3, add it in VG aya and then I use pvmove. the sda2 PV only contained one LV (aya/root, the root fs of the machine) and sdd1 PV only contained one LV (aya/kvms mounted in /srv/kvm). Both LV had a ext3 filesystem. The first pvmove was successful but the second destroyed my aya/kvms LV. More exactely, the LV has been moved to the new PV (hdb3) but only the allocation (not the data). So the "moved" aya/kvms LV did not contain a working ext3 filesystem. The only difference I can think between the LV aya/root and aya/kvms is that aya/kvms had disk images for currently running kvm virtual machines (two plain files). After the pvmove, the virtual machines exhibit some IO error and later the host freeze. I rebooted the host. On reboot, /srv/kvms cannot be mounted (no filesystem dectected on /dev/aya/kvms). I workaround by dumping /dev/sdd1 in a file and loop-mounting my old kvms partition (with several try to find the correct offset, ie 196608 in my case) I can tell now that I had big stress during this operation... It is possible the it is impossible to move PV when kvm is using some part of it. However, destroying the data is not an option: pvmove must abort gracefully.
