Unfortunately i can't say much about dom0. Admin is very busy and didn't
answer me. I only know domU is placed at one logical volume (lvm).
About domU:
- i didn't noticed any problem with kernels <2.6.37
- with kernels >=2.6.37 i noticed two problems, one of them is mentioned
earlier (WARNING: at block/blk-core.c:239 blk_start_queue+0x20/0x32() ),
second one is "100% of CPU utilization"
- i'm not using lvm snapshot (or other features)
- domU works as PV
