The <application>LVM2</application> package is a set of tools that manage
|
|
logical partitions. It allows spanning of file systems across multiple
|
|
physical disks and disk partitions and provides for dynamic growing or
|
|
shrinking of logical partitions, mirroring and low storage footprint
|
|
snapshots.

Kernel versions between 4.1 and 4.4.1 have a broken RAID
|
|
implementation. If you want to use RAID type LV's, you should install
|
|
kernel version 4.4.2 or above. Note that several tests use RAID logical
|
|
volumes, and can generate a <quote>kernel oops</quote> with the faulty
|
|
kernel version, which usually renders the system unusable.

The tests use <application>udev</application> for logical volume
|
|
synchronization, so that the LVM udev rules and some utilities need to
|
|
be installed before running the tests. If you are installing
|
|
<application>LVM2</application> for the first time, and do not
|
|
want to install the full package before running the tests, the minimal
|
|
set of utilities can be installed by running the following instructions
|
|
as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:
|
|
</para>
|
|

<screen role="root"><userinput>make -C tools install_dmsetup_dynamic &&

make -C udev install &&

make -C libdm install</userinput></screen>

<para>
|
|
To test the results, issue: <command>make check_local</command> as the
|
|
<systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user. Other targets are
|
|
available and can be listed with <command>make -C test help</command>.
|
|
The test timings are very dependent on the speed of the disk(s), and on
|
|
the number of enabled kernel options.

|
<para>
|
|
The tests do not implement the <quote>expected fail</quote> possibility,
|
|
and a small number of test failures is expected by upstream. More
|
|
failures may happen because some kernel options are missing. For example,
|
|
the lack of the <emphasis>dm-delay</emphasis> device mapper target may
|
|
explain some failures. Some tests are flagged
|
|
<quote>warned</quote> if
|
|
<ulink url='https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools'>
|
|
thin-provisioning-tools</ulink> are not installed. A workaround is to
|

add the following flags to <command>configure</command>:

Some tests may hang with kernel versions in the 4.1 and 4.2 series (see
|
|
above). They can be removed if necessary, for example: <command>rm
|
|
test/shell/lvcreate-large-raid.sh</command>. The tests generate a lot
|
|
of kernel messages, which may clutter your terminal. You can disable them
|
|
by issuing <command>dmesg -D</command> before running the tests (do not
|
|
forget to issue <command>dmesg -E</command> when tests are done).
