Hi.
I have an LVM storage on a proxmox server with some virtual disks on it. I want to move them all to another storage.
The storage was created so:
pvcreate /dev/cciss/c0d8p1 (adding a disk with 2TB space)
vgcreate VGONVD3 /dev/cciss/c0d8p1
What I do now:
pvcreate /dev/cciss/c0d6p1 (adding a disk with 1.8TB)
vgextend VGONVD3 /dev/cciss/c0d6p1
So I get a storage with ca 3.8TB space
Then I issue a command to free up the space on the 2TB disk
pvmove -v -i 20 /dev/cciss/c0d8p1
And get a message:
Finding volume group "VGONVD3"
Physical Volume "/dev/cciss/c0d8p1" not found in Volume Group "VGONVD3"
When I do a pvscan it shows me the following:
PV /dev/block/104:178 VG pve lvm2 [8.80 GB / 1.11 GB free]
PV /dev/block/104:481 VG VGONVD3 lvm2 [2.00 TB / 1.82 TB free]
PV /dev/block/104:449 VG VGONVD3 lvm2 [1.59 TB / 1.59 TB free]
What are these PV names (/dev/block/104:481) ? I didn't use such disk names when using pvcreate and vgcreate.
When trying to issue "pvmove" command using /dev/block/104:481 or /dev/block/104\:481 (autocompletion in the console) I get the following:
Physical volume /dev/block/104 not found
Run `pvmove --help' for more information.
What am I doing (have I done) wrong?
