2013-06-17 10:09:15 Stefan Bader description When using snapshots there is one special situation when using "lvconvert --merge" on a snapshot when its origin is still in use (the merge subcommand is in lvconvert since Precise/12.04 at least). In that case the merge request is noted in the meta-data and it will get done the next time the volume group gets activated. One case where this should be supported as well would be the rescue environment we offer on server images. For this the dm-snapshot module needs to get listed in the d-i lists (Actually there could the the theoretical situation where someone had initiated a merge and the next thing done is an install into the same volume group). When using snapshots there is one special situation when using "lvconvert --merge" on a snapshot when its origin is still in use (the merge subcommand is in lvconvert since Precise/12.04 at least). In that case the merge request is noted in the meta-data and it will get done the next time the volume group gets activated.

For this the dm-snapshot module needs to get listed in the d-i lists (Actually there could the the theoretical situation where someone had initiated a merge and the next thing done is an install into the same volume group). SRU Justification: Impact: Without this, the installer and rescue environment will produce an error and hide the origin to be merged (as well as the snapshot) making it impossible to access the origin. Fix: Just an additional module for the d-i. Testcase: Initiate a merge on a mounted origin. Then boot into the rescue system and try to activate the VG.
