I redirected the output already to another partition, but system still stopped. Maybe because the partition is on the same disk as the lv ? Whole disk is suspended ? It's not possible to suspend just a partition ? I will try with tmpfs or something else. But does that mean that redirection is generally not possible when suspending a lv ? Or just in my case because i invoke lvcreate ? What is about other programs having redirections during the suspend ? And why does it work when i just rediredt stdout ? When i redirect stdout and stderr system stops.
