Yea. I was planning to wait until pvmove was done. It actually |
28 |
finished not to long after I sent the message. It was what prompted me |
29 |
to see if this is possible. I found a page that talks about it but the |
30 |
info didn't explain it much. I'm pretty sure that is the right command |
31 |
but given the limited info, I wasn't sure. Reading the man page helped |
32 |
a little but still wasn't 100% sure then either. Thing is, I only have |
33 |
to unplug and move one of the two drives on that group. |
34 |
|
35 |
Sounds like the right command tho. If not, someone speak up. |
