I am not sure if it''s a xen bug or lvm bug, or just my bad hardware, but here''s how to reproduce: /dev/vg0/centos1 is lvm block used by a domainU, it''s 8G in size. #lvcreate -L8192M -s -n snap1 vg0 #mount /dev/vg0/snap1 /mnt do some copying files here #umount /mnt #lvremove /dev/vg0/snap1 not removed! it says can''t allocated memory #xm mem-set 0 512 #lvremove /dev/vg0/snap1 now it removed successfully #lvcreate -L4096M -n fedora1 vg0 System lockup at this p...

!st install of 5.2; system requires custom partitioning (Scalix mail server). Boot and Swap are hard partitions, rest of drive is LVM.

Now 'The Installer will now exit..." And all there is is a Reboot button. Any idea on what the real error is, how to find out more, what to try next? It did tak...

...dy! I'm using LVM and ext3 and am very satisfied with it. But now I have the following problem: I have a filesystem on a LV which is in use - files are created, modified and so on. To do a backup I'd like to create a snapshot of this volume which gets backup'd and then dropped. # lvcreate -s -L 20M -n snapshot /dev/vg/data lvcreate -- WARNING: the snapshot will be automatically disabled once it gets full lvcreate -- INFO: using default snapshot chunk size of 64.00 KB for "/dev/vg/snapshot" lvcreate -- doing automatic backup of "vg" lvcreate -- logical volume...

...r: /dev/sdb ==> SSD raid1 array /dev/sdd ==> spinning raid6 array I've added "allow_mixed_block_sizes = 1" to lvm.conf to be able to add sdb and sdd in the same VG (because of the sector size missmatch). But as the LVs will only use one and only one PV I guess it's OK. # lvcreate -L 500M -n lv_cache_meta VGnfs /dev/sdb # lvcreate -l +100%FREE -n lv_cache VGnfs /dev/sdb # lvconvert --type cache-pool /dev/VGnfs/lv_cache --poolmetadata /dev/VGnfs/lv_cache_meta # lvcreate -l +100%FREE -n LVnfs VGnfs /dev/sdd # lvconvert --type cache /dev/VGnfs/LVnfs --cachepool /dev/VGnfs/lv_...

...to install centos3.1 from the 3cd. I removed all existing partitions and made a custom partitionning: a /boot partition /dev/hda1 and a lvm physical volume for the rest: /dev/hda2 in the lvm volume group I placed all other partitions including root (/) The anaconda crashed because of an error in lvcreate for the root partition. Is there a problem with that? I did reboot and restarted with then same config and it is now installing. I have saved the debug info on a floppy if anyone interested.

Is there a simple way to directly install a vm on an lvm (or proably seperate LVM's for root and swap)? For example something like: lvcreate -L 10G -n testvm_root vg_myvg lvcreate -L 1G -n testvm_swap Then somehow setup the VM to be able to directly install and boot the vm from these LV's. How do I do this? Could you then pause the virtual machine and safely take an LVM snapshot, continue the VM and then mount the snapshot on t...

I have a DAS w/ 6 750Gb and 6 1Tb discs I am setting up using Linux raid. The controller is a POS so each disc is exported as an R0 single volume. I used a parted and fdisk script to create 1 max size partition labeled as Linux Raid Autodetect and created the first r6 array w/ mdadm. I normally create and mark partitions as raid or lvm so people know what's going on. The first md array is

Hi there, I am using tar to backup the whole system (specific directorues usr,lib,sbin,etc,var,home,root). On bare metal recovery I install the minimal portion of the syetm and then I throw the tarballs. Any opinions? D.
