Hi Onyx,
GlusterFS volumes are file based. LVM requires block based
store. You cannot have LVM over GlusterFS. I am assuming
you are asking about GlusterFS over LVM. You can use LVM and
its snapshotting ability underneath the GlusterFS posix volume.
It will work transparently.

Has anyone ever tested LVM on top of a glusterfs volume? Would this even be possible?
I'm interested because of the snapshot feature of LVM.

Thanks!
