[lvm-devel] [PATCH v2] improve activation monitoring option processing

Mike Snitzer snitzer at redhat.com
Tue Mar 23 19:23:53 UTC 2010


Add "monitoring" option to "activation" section of lvm.conf

Have clvmd consult the lvm.conf "activation/monitoring" too.

Introduce toollib.c:get_activation_monitoring_mode().

Error out when both --monitor and --ignoremonitoring are provided.

Add --monitor and --ignoremonitoring support to lvcreate.  Update
lvcreate man page accordingly.

Clarify that '--monitor' controls the start and stop of monitoring in
the {vg,lv}change man pages.
