Stupidly i copied 512 bytes (instead of 446) and thus "cloned" the partition table of my smaller 180G disk, too, and the 240G target partition got truncated. After fixing this, every thing works all right now. Suggestion: For pvmove it might be helpful to report the actual system errno occurred, if something went wrong.
