14 lvm lvpoll is an internal command used by lvmpolld(8) to monitor and
15 complete lvconvert(8) and pvmove(8) operations. lvpoll itself does not
16 initiate these operations and should not normally need to be run
17 directly.

26 Common options for lvm:
28 [ -d|--debug ]
29 [ -h|--help ]
30 [ -q|--quiet ]
31 [ -t|--test ]
32 [ -v|--verbose ]
33 [ -y|--yes ]

37 [ --lockopt String ]

40 [ --profile String ]
41 [ --version ]
42
44 --abort
45 Stop processing a poll operation in lvmpolld.
46 -A|--autobackup y|n
48 Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a
49 change. Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8)
50 for more information.
51 --commandprofile String
53 The command profile to use for command configuration. See
54 lvm.conf(5) for more information about profiles.
55 --config String
57 Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf set‐
58 tings. The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf, or may
59 use section/field syntax. See lvm.conf(5) for more information
60 about config.
61 -d|--debug ...
63 Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail
64 of messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
65 --driverloaded y|n
67 If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
68 For testing and debugging.
69 --handlemissingpvs
71 Allows a polling operation to continue when PVs are missing,
72 e.g. for repairs due to faulty devices.
73 -h|--help
75 Display help text.
76 -i|--interval Number
78 Report progress at regular intervals.
79 --lockopt String
81 Used to pass options for special cases to lvmlockd. See lvm‐
82 lockd(8) for more information.
83 --longhelp
85 Display long help text.
86 --nolocking
88 Disable locking.
89 --polloperation pvmove|convert|merge|merge_thin
91 The command to perform from lvmpolld.
92 --profile String
94 An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending on
95 the command.
96 -q|--quiet ...
98 Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --ver‐
99 bose. Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer
100 'no'.
101 -t|--test
103 Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata. This is
104 implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
105 returning success to the calling function. This may lead to
106 unusual error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool
107 relies on reading back metadata it believes has changed but
108 hasn't.
109 -v|--verbose ...
111 Set verbose level. Repeat from 1 to 4 times to increase the
112 detail of messages sent to stdout and stderr.
113 --version
115 Display version information.
116 -y|--yes
118 Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume
119 the answer yes. Use with extreme caution. (For automatic no,
120 see -qq.)
121
123 LV
124 Logical Volume name. See lvm(8) for valid names. An LV posi‐
125 tional arg generally includes the VG name and LV name, e.g.
126 VG/LV.
127 String
129 See the option description for information about the string con‐
130 tent.
131 Size[UNIT]
133 Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit. Input
134 units are always treated as base two values, regardless of capi‐
135 talization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024. The default
136 input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT. UNIT rep‐
137 resents other possible input units: bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE. b|B is
138 bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes, m|M is
139 megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes, p|P is petabytes,
140 e|E is exabytes. (This should not be confused with the output
141 control --units, where capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
142
144 See lvm(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
145 For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG
146 parameter.
147
149 To find the name of the pvmove LV that was created by an original
150 pvmove /dev/name command, use the command:
151 lvs -a -S move_pv=/dev/name.
152
154 Continue polling a pvmove operation.
155 lvm lvpoll --polloperation pvmove vg00/pvmove0
156 Abort a pvmove operation.
158 lvm lvpoll --polloperation pvmove --abort vg00/pvmove0
159 Continue polling a mirror conversion.
161 lvm lvpoll --polloperation convert vg00/lvmirror
162 Continue mirror repair.
164 lvm lvpoll --polloperation convert vg/damaged_mirror --handlemissingpvs
165 Continue snapshot merge.
167 lvm lvpoll --polloperation merge vg/snapshot_old
168 Continue thin snapshot merge.
