Hi!
I'm running in trouble creating more than 16 snapshots of the same origin:
--
# /sbin/lvcreate -s -L150M -n rootfs_node17 /dev/vg/ro_rootfs
File descriptor 5 left open
File descriptor 6 left open
Rounding up size to full physical extent 152.00 MB
device-mapper ioctl cmd 9 failed: Cannot allocate memory
Couldn't load device 'vg-rootfs_node8'.
Problem reactivating origin ro_rootfs
# lvm version
LVM version: 2.01.04 (2005-02-09)

# uname -a

Browsing the mailing list archives I didn't find a suitable solution
although the problem was mentioned before, e.g. on
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2004-09/msg00426.html
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
