I tried creating a snapshot of a ext2 file system on a LV. I expected a fsck on the snapshot device to give no errors, i.e. a consistent file system. This is ok, as long as there is no (or little) load on the file system when creating the snapshot. However, on a busy file system, the created snapshot has lots of errors found by fsck. Is it this what the VFS lock patch is for? If so, why hasn't it been integrated into the standard kernel? Has it flaws in it? Maybe performance wise? urs _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://www.sistina.com/lvm/Pages/howto.html
