Why??? I thought 100 in Cpy%Sync column of lvs output mean volume is fully synchronized. With "lvconvert -m0" I removed /dev/mapper/varlin-opt_rimage_0 from /dev/mapper/varlin-opt. I did some test of volume - everything was normal. My plan for now: for each mirrored volume: 1) do volume content backup 2) umount volume 3) run md5sum for volume itself and all mirror sub-volumes 4) with "lvconvert -m0" remove sub-volume which is not equal to volume 5) do some volume tests 6) if something went wrong - restore volume content from backup 7) if on step 4 was removed new RAID md1, then make pvmove to md1 Best regards, Raimonds Cicans
