Hi,
I'm using LVM based storage pools and I'm wondering
if there is a way to specify several source-dev on the command line
for creating a volume group spread over several devices :
one device /dev/sdc1 is ok:
* virsh pool-define-as --name lvmpool --type logical --source-dev /dev/sdc1 --source-name
vg --target /dev/vg
I would like something like (but sadly doesn't work):
? virsh pool-define-as --name lvmpool --type logical --source-dev /dev/sdc1 --source-dev
/dev/sdb1 --source-name vg --target /dev/vg ?
Best regards,
Matt

Can you define a pool xml as shown below and define it from there ?
ex:
<pool type="logical">
<name>HostVG</name>
<source>
<device path="/dev/sda1"/>
<device path="/dev/sdb1"/>
<device path="/dev/sdc1"/>
</source>
<target>
<path>/dev/HostVG</path>
</target>
</pool>

Thank you for answering.
Yes sure I can from an xml,
But is it possible from the command line with define-pool-as ?
Best,
Matt

There are a few places where define-pool-as is still not as powerful as
using full XML; but you are welcome to write a patch to improve its
behavior.
