I want to convert from LVM1 to LVM2 using vgconvert on a server.  Is
vgconvert -M2 <vg-name> considered a risky operation?  Should I switch
the server into single-user mode and make a backup before running
vgconvert?

And will vgconvert take a long time?  May PEs be moved on the disk or
is only the meta-data rewritten?

Steve
