Hi! I'm running in trouble creating more than 16 snapshots of the same origin: -- # /sbin/lvcreate -s -L150M -n rootfs_node17 /dev/vg/ro_rootfs File descriptor 5 left open File descriptor 6 left open Rounding up size to full physical extent 152.00 MB device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: Cannot allocate memory Couldn't load device 'vg-rootfs_node8'. Problem reactivating origin ro_rootfs # lvm version LVM version: 2.01.04 (2005-02-09) Library version: 1.01.00-ioctl (2005-01-17) Driver version: 4.4.0 # uname -a Linux hostname 2.6.11.12-xen0 #1 Thu Aug 4 00:45:12 BST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux -- Browsing the mailing list archives I didn't find a suitable solution although the problem was mentioned before, e.g. on http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2004-09/msg00426.html Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
