LVM supports enterprise level volume management of disk and disk subsystems by grouping arbitrary disks into volume groups. The total capacity of volume groups can be allocated to logical volumes, which are accessed as regular block devices.

I wonder whether thin-provisioning-tools was missing on the Ubuntu Xenial install ISO.

This target allows the use of a single backing store for multple thinly provisioned volumes. Numerous snapshots can be taken from such volumes. The tools can check the meta-data for consistency, repair damaged information and dump or restore the meta-data in textual form. I vaguely recall having to manually install that when I set up these LVM cache's. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lvm2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1556602 Title: LVM cannot mount LVM Cached Volumes from LMDE Betsy Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm test driving Ubuntu Mate Beta 1 (from USB) on a machine that uses LVM caching. (I use some SSD to cache old hard drives). My LVM setup was created with Linux Mint Debian Edition - Betsy release. The system cannot mount these cached volumes due to the following error reported by 'pvs': ubuntu-mate@ubuntu-mate:~$ sudo pvs LV CacheArchive has invalid cache's feature flag. LV CacheArchive is missing cache policy name. Internal error: LV segments corrupted in CacheArchive. LV CacheArchive has invalid cache's feature flag. LV CacheArchive is missing cache policy name.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1282188. I'll annotate this bug with the LVM version from my existing Debian based configuration in a few minutes. This is a show-stopper for me because I use LVM caching on both of my PCs. It's a great way to marry a 256 GB SSD with a 2 TB hard drive. I keep the OS and some key partitions on the SSD and then use the rest of the SSD to cache the hard drive.
