snapshot, space efficient
Logical volume is a space efficient snapshot.
snapshot, fully allocated
Logical volume is a fully allocated snapshot.
Snapshot Status
State of the snapshot logical volume. Note that this field is only displayed for
snapshot logical volumes.
operative
Snapshot logical volume is operative.
inoperative
Snapshot logical volume is inoperative.
inoperative/over-commit
Snapshot logical volume is inoperative and marked as over-commit.
Mirror copies Number of mirror copies.
Consistency Recovery
Mode of mirror consistency recovery which determines how LVM performs
mirror consistency recovery during volume group activation:
MWC Recover mirror consistency by using the Mirror Write Cache and
Mirror Consistency Record. Implies that Mirror Write Cache is on.
NOMWC Recover mirror consistency by going through all logical extents and
copying data from a non-stale copy to the other mirror copies.
Implies that Mirror Write Cache is off.
NONE No mirror consistency recovery during volume group activation on
this logical volume following a system crash. The user of the logical
volume is responsible for ensuring mirror consistency. Implies that
Mirror Write Cache is off.
Schedule Striped, sequential or parallel scheduling policy. Striped policy is by default
parallel scheduling for mirrored I/O.
LV Size (Mbytes)
Size of the logical volume in megabytes (MB).
Current LE Number of logical extents currently in the logical volume.
Allocated PE Number of physical extents allocated to the logical volume.
Stripes The number of stripes. If this field is 0, then the logical volume is not striped.
Stripe Size (Kbytes)
The size of each stripe in kilobytes (KB).
Bad block Bad block relocation policy.
Allocation Current allocation state, displayed as one of:
non-strict non-strict/contiguous
strict strict/contiguous
PVG-strict PVG-strict/contiguous
PVG-strict/distributed
PVG-strict/partially-distributed
contiguous Physical extents are allocated in an ascending order
without any gap between adjacent extents. All physical
extents of a given mirror are contained in a single physi-
cal volume.
distributed Distributed allocation is turned on and any two consecu-
tive logical extents are guaranteed to be located on
different physical volumes. See lvcreate (1M) for more
information.
partially-distributed
Distributed allocation is turned on but any two
