Re: lvm guru's
If you have a spare disk of the same PE size as the one you want to remove then you CAN use pvmove to move the old disk to the new one, then you can vgreduce the old disk and physically pull it. We use pvmove all the time, its nice and safe.

Re: lvm guru's
I hate to speak for Stefan, but I believe he's referring to mirroring using the MirrorDisk/UX product. LVM provides no mirroring capabilities on its own.

Re: lvm guru's
True, you need Mirrorux to pull one on the fly, but you dont need it, you can use pvmove anytime as long as you have a spare disk of the same PE size to add to your VG.

Re: lvm guru's
Thanks, I'm still trying to digest that concept.
To my way of thinking, if you've got a file system striped over 4 physical disks and you pull one of them out, your file system is going to have issues, isn't it? Granted you can pvmove the fourth disk, but this would have to be done before pulling said fourth disk, wouldn't it?
