[linux-lvm] What todo if metadata grows faster than pool data

[Oliver Rath]

Hi list,

in my thinpool-volume the used data is now 50% but the used metadata
size is 82%. What happens, if the metadata a running full, bevor data is
full? Do I have to modify metadata size explicitly or does lvm this
automaticly? How can I do this?

At the moment 78 volumes or snaps had been created from this
winthinpool, mostly with size about 100GB.

Tfh,
OIiver
