Does anybody have any suggestions on what I can use to coalesce partitions together \
from 3 PC's? I didn't have much luck over the weekend on my tests.
Testing Summary on 3 PCs with 2 2TB real partitions each:
local 2TB + LVM(2 devices) : OK
GNBD 2TB(4 imports 2 PCs) + LVM(6 devices) : FAIL(mkfs xfs)
GNBD 2TB(2 imports 2 PCs) + LVM(2 devices) : FAIL(dd ok,
mkfs xfs fails)
GNBD 2TB(2 imports 2 PCs) + MD(2 devices) : FAIL(dd ok,
mkfs xfs fails)
GNBD 2TB(2 imports same PC) + LVM(2 devices) : FAIL(mkfs xfs)
GNBD 2TB(2 imports same PC) + MD(2 devices) : FAIL(dd 100000 ct ok,
mkfs xfs fails,
mkfs ext3 fails)
GNBD 4TB(1 import linear array) + LVM(1 device) : FAIL(mkfs xfs)
GNBD 4TB(1 import linear array) : FAIL(dd 5000 ct ok,
mkfs xfs fails)
GNBD 2TB(1 import) + LVM(1 device) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on LVM device)
GNBD 2TB(1 import) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on gnbd device)
Testing Summary on 1 PC with 2 2TB partitions and 1 PC with 4 .37GB partitions:
local 2TB + LVM(2 devices) : OK
GNBD .37GB(4 imports 2 PCs) + LVM(6 devices) : not tested
GNBD .37GB(2 imports same PC) + LVM(2 devices) : FAIL(dd ok, mkfs xfs fails,
mkfs xfs waiting for fsync(),
mkfs reiserfs ok,
mount reiserfs fails)
GNBD .37GB(2 imports same PC) + MD(2 devices) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on MD device,
mkfs reiserfs ok,
mount reiserfs fails)
GNBD .74GB(1 import linear array) + LVM(1 device): FAIL(mkfs xfs fails,
dd ok)
GNBD .74GB(1 import linear array) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on gnbd device)
GNBD .37GB(1 import) + LVM(1 device) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on LVM device)
GNBD .37GB(1 import) : OK(dd,mkfs xfs on gnbd device)

Subject: [linux-lvm] LVM2 + Pair GNBD on FC4
<br>On a standard FC4 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4smp build, I'm trying to \
get<br>LVM2(lvm2-2.01.08-2.1) to work on a pair of gnbd(gnbd-1.0.2) imported devices. \
I'm able to create a volume group and logical volume<br>from one gnbd device and I'm \
able to create an XFS filesystem on it.<br>I then extend the volume group with \
another gnbd device and recreate the logical volume to use the full # of extents. \
This works. I now<br>try to create an XFS or an EXT3 filesystem on top of the \
logical<br>volume and the mkfs process seems to go into a disk wait mode. ssh access \
to the machine is still ok, any LVM2 command will hang, sync command will \
hang.<br><br>Any suggestions on what is happening, debug suggestions or if anyone \
else has done something similar to this? \
Thanks.<br><br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Join \
