* thin: use discards as plural rather than singularAlasdair G Kergon2012-08-071-3/+3
| | | | Global change from --discard to --discards, as that feels more natural.
* thin: add discard support for thin poolZdenek Kabelac2012-07-181-0/+6
| | | | | | | | Add arg support for discard. Add discard ignore, nopassdown, passdown (=default) support. Flags could be set per pool. lvcreate [--discard {ignore|no_passdown|passdown}] vg/thinlv
* man: --activate ay and auto_activation_volume_listPeter Rajnoha2012-06-291-5/+9
|
* args: add --activate synonym for --available argPeter Rajnoha2012-06-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | We're refererring to 'activation' all over the code and we're talking about 'LVs being activated' all the time so let's use 'activation/activate' everywhere for clarity and consistency (still providing the old 'available' keyword as a synonym for backward compatibility with existing environments).
* Update man pagesZdenek Kabelac2012-04-111-57/+58
| | | | Use one style for man pages.
* Fix warn message and update man pageZdenek Kabelac2012-03-061-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Fix regression in man page. The chunk size is in kilobyte units on command line input though in the source code we work with sector size unit so make it clear in the man page. Update chunksize for thin pool in man page - it's max value is 1024M == 1G. Fix warning range message to show proper max value.
* Thin extend lvcreate man page about snapshot supportZdenek Kabelac2012-01-201-8/+9

* Update lvconvert man page to describe '--type <segtype>' argumentJonathan Earl Brassow2011-10-251-1/+1
| | | | | Man page changes were not included when the ability to convert from "mirror" -> "raid1" or "linear" -> "raid1" were made.
* Thin pool now support chunk size as wellZdenek Kabelac2011-10-211-0/+2
| | | | | Use chunksize option to specify data_block_size for thin pool target. Drop low_water_mark to zero.

|
* Improve lvcreate man pageZdenek Kabelac2011-10-191-72/+130
| | | | | | | Split syntax for thin-pool since it cannot be fully matched with snapshot. So to avoid more confusion - take thin support into separate line. Though still significant updates are needed for thin provisioning.
* lvcreate parsing for thin provisioning.Alasdair Kergon2011-09-061-2/+4
| | | | The rest is incomplete so this isn't usable yet.
* Add -V as short form of --virtualsize in lvcreate.Alasdair Kergon2011-08-171-2/+2

| | | | | | | | | | This check-in enables the 'mirrored' log type. It can be specified by using the '--mirrorlog' option as follows: #> lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog mirrored -L 5G -n lv vg I've also included a couple updates to the testsuite. These updates include tests for the new log type, and some fixes to some of the *lvconvert* tests.

Introduce toollib.c:get_activation_monitoring_mode(). . Error out when both --monitor and --ignoremonitoring are provided. . Add --monitor and --ignoremonitoring support to lvcreate.
