Hello, I am trying to create snapshots of thick volumes that can't break because they overflow (thin volumes are not an option right now). I can't find information on how to calculate (in advance) the metadata overhead of a snapshot when all blocks in the origin volume are changed (e.g. the snapshot is 100% full). Is there a way to do this?
Recent versions of lvm2 (let's say >= 111) are able to determine this size automatically - just use: 'lvcreate -s -l100%ORIGIN vg/origin'
