  • v2_03_13
    67a853f3 · pre-release ·
    Test Release 2.03.13
    
    WARNING: This release is intended mainly for testing.
    
    Less reliance on udev:
    - Users suffering from udev timeouts are sometimes recommended to change the
      obtain_device_list_from_udev configuration option to 0. This is now default
      and /dev is read instead of udev.
    - Use of multipath wwids file to quick check if device is multipath.
    
    See devices/external_device_info_source, devices/obtain_device_list_from_udev,
    and devices/multipath_wwids_file help in lvm.conf
    
    Other changes worth highlighting:
    
    - Refactoring of archive() and backup() internal calls.
    - New vdoimport tool to convert VDO volumes to LVs (requires updated kernel and
      vdo tools.)
    
    And many fixes, improvements, and clean ups.
    
  • v2_03_12
    01b05cf5 · pre-release ·
    Release 2.03.12
    
    Two notable changes are devices file and metadata based autoactivation.
    
    Fix exported symbols generation with GCC10's new LTO optimizer.  Can be
    overridden by configure --with/without-symvers.
    
    Greatly improved reliability of test suite, now reporting much less false
    positives.
    
    And many fixes, improvements, and clean ups.
    
    New devices file feature is off by default for now.
    When on devices file is used to filter devices which are scanned for PVs.
    Devices file can be overridden by --devicesfile on command line.
    Two new commands to manipulate devices file - lvmdevices(8) and
    vgimportdevices(8), and new configuration options in devices section:
    use_devicesfile, devicesfile and search_for_devnames.
    
    Metadata based autoactivation property for LVs and VGs set in lvcreate/vgcreate
    using --setautoactivation option and modified by lvchange/vgchange.
