Hello Marian,

Thank for your reply.
About the detailed changes for V2.03, where do we can find the related documents from the external link?

Thanks
Gang

master - 2.03 branch, new features land here,
stable-2.02 - legacy 2.02 branch, bug fixes mostly.

2.03 vs 2.03:

- dropped lvmetad and clvmd,
- added handling of writecache and VDO targets.
