[Yaird-devel] Bug#459777: yaird: Can not start mirrored LVs and interrupted pvmove (LVM)

[Artur Górniak]

Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.12-24
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Plan.pm:
353c353
<       ModProbe::addOptModules ($actions, [ "dm-mirror" ], 1);
---
>       ModProbe::addModules ($actions, [ "dm-mirror" ]);

It is needed for LVM raids (yaird is partially compatible with them/it is
necessery to do initrd after configuring mirrors).

Moreover dm-mirror is needed in all situations when pvmove command was
interrupted.

In both situations it is much more safe to add dm-mirror to all LVM setups.
If not in Plan.pm it should be added to:
/etc/yaird/Templates.cfg as
MODULE dm-mirror in vgchange template (not tested).


There are some problems on older Suns with yaird. No autodetection of SCSI/esp.
With some additional hand made modifications to /etc/yaird/Default.cfg
it behaves better then initramfs.
Of course it is not connected to this bug report.
