vdoimport — utility to import VDO volumes into a new volume
group.
vdoimport
[options] device
vdoimport utility imports VDO volumes created and managed by
vdo(8) manager into lvm2(8) managed VDO LV. This is realized by
moving VDO superblock by 2MiB and creating lvm2 metadata at the
front of this device. The operation is not reversible, thus after
conversion to lvm2 the access to VDO data is only possible with
lvm2(8) commands, vdo(8) manager no longer control such volume.
-f|--force
Bypass some sanity checks.
-h|--help
Display the help text.
-n|--name
Specifies the name of converted VDO LV. When the name is
not specified, some automatic name is selected. In case
the converted VDO volume is already using LV a backend
device, the name of this LV is used for VDO LV. In this
case also the of volume group must stay same.
-v|--verbose
Be more verbose.
-y|--yes
Answer "yes" at any prompts.
--dry-run
Print commands without running them.
On successful completion, the status code is 0. A status code of
1 is used for failure.
Convert VDO volume created by vdo manager into logical volume LV1
with within volume group VG1.
# vdoimport --name VG1/LV1 /dev/mapper/vdo-volume
TMPDIR The temporary directory name for mount points. Defaults to
"/tmp".
DM_DEV_DIR
The device directory name. Defaults to "/dev" and must be
an absolute path.
