Dare I ask what went wrong?

jonludlam commented 7 years ago

Sure - it seems that without this we had the LVs open for the entire duration of the copy, which isn't necessary since we've loaded the BATs and never read from the VHDs directly again. This interfered with some LV refreshes that were happening as a result of coalesce operations.

Thanks for the explanation!

Dare I say that the explanation deserved to be in the commit message...? ;)
