LVM(LVPOLL)			 Red Hat, Inc.			   LVM(LVPOLL)

NAME
       lvm  lvpoll  -  Continue	 already initiated poll operation on a logical
       volume

SYNOPSIS
       lvm lvpoll option_args position_args
	   [ option_args ]

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

USAGE
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation pvmove|convert|merge|merge_thin LV ...
	   [ -A|--autobackup y|n ]
	   [ -i|--interval Number ]
	   [	--abort ]
	   [	--handlemissingpvs ]
	   [ COMMON_OPTIONS ]

       Common options for lvm:
	   [ -d|--debug ]
	   [ -h|--help ]
	   [ -q|--quiet ]
	   [ -t|--test ]
	   [ -v|--verbose ]
	   [ -y|--yes ]
	   [	--commandprofile String ]
	   [	--config String ]
	   [	--driverloaded y|n ]
	   [	--longhelp ]
	   [	--profile String ]
	   [	--version ]

OPTIONS
       --abort
	      Stop processing a poll operation in lvmpolld.

       -A|--autobackup y|n
	      Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a
	      change.  Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8)
	      for more information.

       --commandprofile String
	      The command profile to use for command configuration.  See
	      lvm.conf(5) for more information about profiles.

       --config String
	      Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf set‐
	      tings.  The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf, or may
	      use section/field syntax.	 See lvm.conf(5) for more information
	      about config.

       -d|--debug ...
	      Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail
	      of messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).

       --driverloaded y|n
	      If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
	      For testing and debugging.

       --handlemissingpvs
	      Allows a polling operation to continue when PVs are missing,
	      e.g. for repairs due to faulty devices.

       -h|--help
	      Display help text.

       -i|--interval Number
	      Report progress at regular intervals.

       --longhelp
	      Display long help text.

       --polloperation pvmove|convert|merge|merge_thin
	      The command to perform from lvmpolld.

       --profile String
	      An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending on
	      the command.

       -q|--quiet ...
	      Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --ver‐
	      bose.  Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer
	      'no'.

       -t|--test
	      Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.  This is
	      implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
	      returning success to the calling function. This may lead to
	      unusual error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool
	      relies on reading back metadata it believes has changed but
	      hasn't.

       -v|--verbose ...
	      Set verbose level. Repeat from 1 to 4 times to increase the
	      detail of messages sent to stdout and stderr.

       --version
	      Display version information.

       -y|--yes
	      Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume
	      the answer yes. Use with extreme caution.	 (For automatic no,
	      see -qq.)

VARIABLES
       LV
	      Logical  Volume  name.  See lvm(8) for valid names.  An LV posi‐
	      tional arg generally includes the VG  name  and  LV  name,  e.g.
	      VG/LV.

       String
	      See the option description for information about the string con‐
	      tent.

       Size[UNIT]
	      Size is an input number that accepts an  optional	 unit.	 Input
	      units are always treated as base two values, regardless of capi‐
	      talization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to  1024.	  The  default
	      input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.  UNIT rep‐
	      resents other possible input units:  bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE.   b|B  is
	      bytes,  s|S  is  sectors	of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes, m|M is
	      megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes, p|P is petabytes,
	      e|E  is  exabytes.  (This should not be confused with the output
	      control --units, where capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       See lvm(8) for information about environment  variables	used  by  lvm.
       For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG
       parameter.

NOTES
       To find the name of the pvmove LV  that	was  created  by  an  original
       pvmove /dev/name command, use the command:
       lvs -a -S move_pv=/dev/name.

EXAMPLES
       Continue polling a pvmove operation.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation pvmove vg00/pvmove0

       Abort a pvmove operation.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation pvmove --abort vg00/pvmove0

       Continue polling a mirror conversion.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation convert vg00/lvmirror

       Continue mirror repair.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation convert vg/damaged_mirror --handlemissingpvs

       Continue snapshot merge.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation merge vg/snapshot_old

       Continue thin snapshot merge.
       lvm lvpoll --polloperation merge_thin vg/thin_snapshot
