[linux-lvm] Cloning Logical Volumes

[Greg Hartzog]

Hello there folks.  I have a question.

 

I am looking for a better way of cloning logical volumes then creating a new
logical volume, identical to a source logical volume, and using "dd" to copy
data between the two logical volumes.

 

I would love to use dm-mirror to do this, but I do not think any interface
has been provided to do this yet.

 

All suggestions and ideas appreciated.

 

I am running lvm2-2.02.04-r1 & 2.6.15 kernel.

 

Thanks!
