You can optionally specify a source LV in which +case only extents used by that LV will be moved to free (or specified) +extents on the destination PV. If no destination PV is specified, the +normal allocation rules for the VG are used. +.P +If pvmove is interrupted for any reason (e.g. the machine crashes) then +run pvmove again without any PV arguments to restart any operations that +were in progress from the last checkpoint. Alternatively, use the abort +option at any time to abort the operation. The resulting location of LVs +after an abort depends on whether the atomic option was used. +.P +More than one pvmove can run concurrently if they are moving data from +different source PVs, but additional pvmoves will ignore any LVs already +in the process of being changed, so some data might not get moved. |
