[lvm-devel] [PATCH] (3/5) vgreduce --consolidate

[Petr Rockai]

Hi,

this patch adds a new (sub-)command, vgreduce --consolidate, that is a safer
(and now preferred) variant of vgreduce --removemissing, that will only bring
volume group back from partial mode if that does not compromise any logical
volumes residing there (ie. those having extents on missing PVs).

Users should probably use lvremove and lvconvert --repair to get rid of logical
volumes residing on missing PVs (or let dmeventd sort out the latter). The
possibility to use --removemissing is of course still there as well.
