USAGE
info
This collects and displays lock state from lvmlockd. The display is primitive, incomplete and will
change in future version. To print the raw lock state from lvmlockd, combine this option with --dump|-d.
dump
This collects the circular log buffer of debug statements from lvmlockd and prints it.
kill
This is run by sanlock when it loses access to the storage holding leases for a VG. It currently emits a
syslog message stating that the VG must be immediately deactivated. In the future it may automatically
attempt to forcibly deactivate the VG. For more, see lvmlockd(8).
drop
This should only be run after a VG has been successfully deactivated following an lvmlockctl --kill
command. It clears the stale lockspace from lvmlockd. In the future, this may become automatic along
with an automatic handling of --kill. For more, see lvmlockd(8).
gl-enable
This enables the global lock in a sanlock VG. This is necessary if the VG that previously held the
global lock is removed. For more, see lvmlockd(8).
gl-disable
This disables the global lock in a sanlock VG. This is necessary if the global lock has mistakenly been
enabled in more than one VG. The global lock should be disabled in all but one sanlock VG. For more,
see lvmlockd(8).
stop-lockspaces
This tells lvmlockd to stop all lockspaces. It can be useful to stop lockspaces for VGs that the
vgchange --lock-stop comand can no longer see, or to stop the dlm global lockspace which is not directly
stopped by the vgchange command. The wait and force options can be used with this command.
