As I recall, pvmove also requires the functionality of LVM snapshot.
Is it possible to use pvmove on a PV which contains a mounted GFS 
filesystem?

To be specific, I have a two-node cluster with GFS mount. I know that 
cluster snapshot is not finished yet, but is it possible to shut down 
one node, and use pvmove on the live node?

Regards,

Fajar
