Hey gurus!
I have a PATA 200GB and a SATA 1TB spanning an LVM. Seems that the PATA drive is going bad. Is there a way to force all data onto the SATA drive so I can remove the bad drive from the system?
I will also need some pointers to how to change the LVM setup to remove the PATA drive once the data has been "moved" if possible.
Thanks!
Edit: I forgot to mention it is an xfs filesys. I am getting the impression that you can't shrink and xfs sys anyway so I may be outta luck.
Anyone?
