[linux-lvm] pvmove question

[Peter V. Saveliev]

...

Hello. I have a VG on two software raid1 devices:

~ # pvs
  PV         VG      Fmt  Attr PSize  PFree 
  /dev/md0   hosting lvm2 a-   16.96G 16.96G
  /dev/md1   hosting lvm2 a-   16.96G  6.96G

I need to remove one raid (md1) from VG, but it is used:

~ # vgreduce hosting /dev/md1
  Physical volume "/dev/md1" still in use

But I cannot free it:

~ # pvmove /dev/md1 /dev/md0
  Unrecognised segment type mirror

Is there any solution? The system running lvm is a test box
and data stored on the VG is also unimportant; but I must
complete tests before running this system in production.

~ # uname -r
2.6.11-vs26-smp-rad4

~ # lvm version
File descriptor 5 left open
