Hi all, Origin volume and snapshot volume share the same file-system UUID. So after the snapshot we fix the uuid by running xfs_admin or tune2fs. Do you have any recommendation or best practice in this regard?
With thin pools and thin volumes - snapshot of thin volume is now created 'inactive' and it's skipped from default activation (you could always override skip with -K i.e. : lvchange -ay -K vg/mythinsnap)
So with thins you should mostly have only a single volume active with the FS UUID. If you happen to have multiple volumes active and you need to mount xfs filesystem - use 'nouuid' (and eventually norecovery for read-only activated snapshots) mount options.
For old-snapshosts - all volumes need to be available/active - so you need to use 'nouuid' option always.
I don't see much point in changing FS UUID on your snapshot - unless of course you plan to use snapshots as different volumes with just a 'single' starting point (i.e. preinstalled tree of files)
