I create a big LV and then only use part of it for the host OS VG; when I create VMs, I create a VG for each (or I can snapshot an existing "base" VG). It is my understanding that one goal for btrfs is to take LVM out of the picture for the common case; i.e. btrfs can do its own logical volume management. If that's the case, there needs to be something comparable to the VM-on-VG setup (in terms of ease-of-management and performance). -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
