I'm trying to move an LV from one VG on 1 PV to another VG on another PV,
but it doesn't seem to like my syntax. Isn't it: " -n LV FROMPV TOPV"
> sudo pvmove -n Win /dev/sda1 /dev/sdc1
Physical Volume "/dev/sdc1" not found in Volume Group "HnS"
Pertinent details:
> lvs #(From volume in HnS)
LV VG Attr LSize
Sys HnS -wc-a---- 96.00g
> pvs #(from VG HnS on PV /dev/sda1, destination PV = /dev/sdc1
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda1 HnS lvm2 a-- 21.83t 10.20t
/dev/sdc1 Data lvm2 a-- 43.66t 39.46t

Before I got to that point:
> sudo pvmove -n Win /dev/sda1 /dev/sdc1
Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel
(for some reason kernel module isn't auto-loaded??? (the minor bug..))
So:
> sudo modprobe dm-mirror
-- Don't know if any other modules are needed? I have:
> ls -d /sys/module/dm*
/sys/module/dm_bufio/ /sys/module/dm_mirror/ /sys/module/dm_region_hash/
/sys/module/dm_log/ /sys/module/dm_mod/ /sys/module/dm_snapshot/
---
Available (not loaded):
> sudo modprobe dm-<COMPLETE>
dm-bio-prison dm-raid dm-zero
dm-persistent-data dm-thin-pool
I'm assuming I only needed the dm-mirror so it could do the
mirroring? What syntax should I be using?
Thanks!
