I can skip the ext3 snapshot creation part - each test is done on its own logical volume; however, in the dark dim past any of these could have had other filesystems on them. Does this sound sensible? 1) Run tests without doing the ext3 snapshot creation, then 2) dd the entire lv that is giving problems and try again?
