Bug Description
Binary package hint: lvm2
I am unable to make lvm mirroring work with Feisty or Edgy.
Any attempts to use -m1 with 'lvcreate' or 'lvchange' results in a message about not being able to allocate extents. E.g:
eia:~ % sudo modprobe dm-mirror
eia:~ % sudo lvcreate -m 1 -L1G -n test /dev/Ubuntu
Not enough PVs with free space available for parallel allocation.
Consider --alloc anywhere if desperate.
eia:~ % sudo lvconvert -m 1 /dev/Ubuntu/tmp
Insufficient suitable allocatable extents for logical volume : 512 more required
The VG consists of two disks, one recently added, and about 25% of it allocated to LVs.
(See also #120364 - if it's not supposed to work, it should be documented as such)

Apparently, the broken LVM is inherited from Debian: bugs.debian. org/cgi- bin/bugreport. cgi?bug= 394333
