When I said validate, I meant just check it out. I didn't expect you
to run it. Probabily it was not the appropiat word to say what I
wanted. (I'm sorry for this poor english.)

No, I don't and can't do that. LVs are passed directly to VMs'
configuration files, and Xen takes care of it. Actualy, each LV is
seen like a phisical disk by the VM. It's Xen that access and "mounts"
it.

Hum... so nesting indicates order. It's good to know. =)

What are the changes that needs to be done to lvm.conf, as advised in
the script code?

I have seen that there is already a resource called vm. Maybe,
lvm-cluster and vm resouces can do everything I need. I hope that it
can. =)
