It's very hard to say since it depends on your use case. In general you want to allow dmeventd plenty of time to extend the pool before you run out of space. So if you're seeing a _peak_ provisioning rate of 100meg a minute, I'd set the lwm to about 100meg. It would be nice if LVM could help you through this process. - Joe -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
