Package: clvm
Version: 2.02.39-7
Severity: important
Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but it seems impossible to use pvmove on
lenny with clustered volume groups.
# pvmove /dev/mapper/3600508b30094ae20a92f2e5ab341002e
FATAL: Module dm_cmirror not found.
/sbin/modprobe failed: 1
As far as I understand it (and I have found next to no documentation) in
order to use pvmove on clvm you need cmirror, which is a kernel module.
It doesn't seem to be provided by any Debian package that I can find,
nor does it seem to be in the mainline kernel.
I found a comment in the changelog for the redhat-cluster package, which
says:
* Stop shipping cmirror kernel module in coordination with upstream.
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/r/redhat-cluster/redhat-cluster_3.0.6-5/changelog#versionversion1.20060112-0ubuntu1
I'm not sure what that changelog entry means, or even if the package it
is in is relevant to lenny or not.
Is it possible to use pvmove on clvm in lenny with stock packages?
