[linux-lvm] pvmove fails with "Failure parsing mirror status fraction: 1 core"

[linux-lvm] pvmove fails with "Failure parsing mirror status fraction: 1 core"

[Vesa-Pekka Palmu]

I'm trying to move data away from a raid1 array in a volume group to a 
raid5 array and pvmove fails with error "Failure parsing mirror status 
fraction: 1 core".

Any ideas?

Hi,
there is bug in status string - and pvmove use it for monitoring, 
unfotunatelly the fix is not in 2.6.22 stable tree yet...
(kernel 2.6.21 is ok)

Patch is here
