Reply-To: Steve Wray , LVM general discussion and development List-Id: LVM general discussion and development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format="flowed" To: LVM general discussion and development Hi there, Is there any way to find which files in a given logical volume occupy extents on a given physical volume? I am trying to decommission a drive and pvmove still isn't working properly. Either that or; 1. pvmove -tv claims to fail when in fact without the -t it would actually work. Thie would seem like a joke in very bad taste (on the part of the developers. or 2. pvmove -v which is supposed to give verbose progress output, in fact will sit there for a *very* long time (half an hour or more) with no progress output and push load up extremely high. Or maybe pvmove is *still* broken, in which case I need to find the files which occupy that physical volume, move them to a different logical volume altogether and then forcibly remove that physical volume without regard to the files that are no longer on it... and hopefuly this won't cause corruption on the filesystem on that logical volume. help? Thanks!
