6.3.2. Moving the Data
You can move all the used physical extents in
/dev/sdc1 to /dev/sdb1 with the pvmove command. The pvmove command can take a long time to execute.
# pvmove /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 14.7%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 30.3%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 45.7%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 61.0%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 76.6%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 92.2%
/dev/sdc1: Moved: 100.0%
After moving the data, you can see that all of the space on
/dev/sdc1 is free.
