[rhn-users] LVM- LV snapshots size?

[Mertens, Bram]

Please direct this question either to an LVM specific list or at least the general red hat mailing list.  You have far more chance of getting a reply on such a list.  This list is reserved for topics concerning RHN.

I have no experience with this myself but I'd the space you need depends on the expected amount of changes made to the file system and the time you need the snapshot.  At least this is true for VMWare snapshots.  But as I said you'd better as someone who has experience with this on a different list.

Regards

Bram

Subject: [rhn-users] LVM- LV snapshots size?

Hi All

i would like to know how much size should be assigned to a snapshot of a LV?
I've seen several examples, but not much people talks about that topic...
should it be the same as the used-space?

thanx in advance!
