Honestly, I think I heard it is possible, but I don't know exactly when and how. We are running 5.2 and I can say definitively that CLVM snapshots do not work in 5.2. (I have, as a workaround, dropped the cluster bit, taken a snapshot, and re-clustered the volume group. Not too painful to do provided I have exclusive access from one node.) I know 5.3 enabled clustered mirroring, which I think is a prerequisite to clustered snapshots. I've seen patches to make snapshots work on a clustered vg. 5.4 may fix it, but I haven't tried that yet. -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
