[linux-lvm] pvmove won't start

[Dieter Stüken <stueken conterra de>]

I'm using LVM2 on kernel 2.6.12.2 and tried to perform a pvmove.
Unfortunately I got the message:

mirror: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel

I found, dm-mirror was compiled as a module, but it was not loaded.
After a "modprobe dm-mirror" it seems to work now. Can someone tell
me, why the module is not loaded automatically?

Dieter.
