What is the best way to deploy LVM in such a way that multiple servers could
access the LVs? Really what I'm looking for is a "common VG" for all of our
servers. Note though that only one server will actually access each LV,
however it would be cool if another server could make a snapshot to perform
an rsync backup.
This is what cluster LVM is for. It provides a locking mechanism to
avoid conflicting changes to LVM metadata.
