Hi there. Im using the original kernel 2.4.18 with the locking patch and the lvm-patch applied. I use the lvm in Version 1.1rc1. I got one harddisk with 4 partitions on it, 1 partition is Linux LVM. The volume to backup is mounted on /home and has reiserfs. I made a shell-script to perform a test using snapshots. Here is what it does (looped): 1) create snapshot 2) mount snapshot --> fails sometimes (35 loops, 6 fails) 3) backup snapshot 4) create file on original volume while backup is still running 5) unmount snapshot 6) remove snapshot In some cases mounting the snapshot volume fails with error 32 (wrong fs type or bad superblock). Anybody got any idea??? Thanks for your help, Markus _______________________________________________ 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
