Hi, I had a question regarding LVM2 snapshots. I read the following about snapshots (taken from http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/snapshotintro.html): "This facility does require that the snapshot be made at a time when the data on the logical volume is in a consistent state - the VFS-lock patch for LVM1 makes sure that some filesystems do this automatically when a snapshot is created, and many of the filesystems in the 2.6 kernel do this automatically when a snapshot is created without patching." Does this mean that I don't have to unmount (or remount ro) a partition if I'm using a 2.6 kernel to take a snapshot and I can rest assured that the logical volume will be in a consistent state? Thanks for your help. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
