It's my understanding that "--errorwhenfull y" will instantly fail 
writes which imply new allocation requests, but writes to 
already-allocated space will be completed.

It is possible, without messing directly with device mapper (via 
dmsetup), to configure a strict "read-only" policy, where *all* writes 
(both to allocated or not allocated space) will fail?

It is not possible to do via lvm tools, what/how device-mapper target 
should be used?
Thanks.
