The default attributes -for the new volume group can be specified with -.BR \-\-alloc , -.BR \-\-clustered , -.BR \-\-maxlogicalvolumes , -.BR \-\-metadatatype , -.B \-\-maxphysicalvolumes \fRand -.BR \-\- [ vg ] metadatacopies -(see \fBvgcreate\fP(8) for a description of these options). If any -of these options are not given, default attribute(s) are taken from -\fISourceVolumeGroupName\fP. If a non-LVM2 metadata type (e.g. lvm1) is -being used, you should use the \fB\-M\fP option to specify the metadata -type directly. - -If -.I DestinationVolumeGroupName -does exist, it will be checked for compatibility with -.I SourceVolumeGroupName -before the physical volumes are moved. Specifying any of the above default -volume group attributes with an existing destination volume group is an error, -and no split will occur. - -Logical volumes cannot be split between volume groups. \fBvgsplit\fP(8) only -moves complete physical volumes: To move part of a physical volume, use -\fBpvmove\fP(8). Each existing logical volume must be entirely on the physical -volumes forming either the source or the destination volume group. For this -reason, \fBvgsplit\fP(8) may fail with an error if a split would result in a -logical volume being split across volume groups. - -A vgsplit into an existing volume group retains the existing volume group's -value of \fPvgmetadatacopies\fP (see \fBvgcreate\fP(8) and \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for further -explanation of \fPvgmetadatacopies\fP). To change the value of -\fBvgmetadatacopies\fP, use \fBvgchange\fP(8). - -.SH OPTIONS -See \fBlvm\fP(8) for common options. -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR lvm (8), -.BR vgcreate (8), -.BR vgextend (8), -.BR vgreduce (8), -.BR vgmerge (8) |
