Hi,
=A0
I've been struggling with lvcreate for more than=A0 a hour to crea= te a mirror'ed LV with on disk log, with no success (I'm ashamed! := -| )
=A0
=A0
Here's what I typed on a VG (with 2 X 8678 4MB extents free), it&#= 39;s not a free space issue...
=A0
lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog disk=A0 -L 9G -n lvolvm1 VMVG, it complains a= bout 2304 more extents required (wich make the exact size of the LV I want = to create), plus where to define the log device to use ?
=A0
same command whith --corelog (instead of --mirrorlog disk) succeeds. <= /div>
=A0
Same command without any of these 2 options fails with the same=A0 com= plain as the first (man page says that default no option =3D=3D mirrolog di= sk).
=A0
Any tip ?
=A0
Regards
