Hi, Here's what I'm trying to do: I have an LV that is being used as a physical disk for a XEN virtual machine. I want to "clone" the VM. lvcreate -L 75G -n virtualmachine_clone_lv VG00 dd if=/path/to/virtualmachine_lv of=/path/to/virtualmachine_clone_lvT This method would be perfect if it wasn't for the fact that now I have 2 LV's with the same uuid....not good... Is there a way to do this (ie. copy an LV but change its uuid, or create a duplicate of the source LV with a new uuid?) I want to do this WITHOUT using any XEN cloning tools (buggy). Thanks LK _______________________________________________ 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/
