Hello guys

Does anyone use lvm2 backends for domU storages ? I do and I wanted to use lvm's snapshot feature to make backups of domUs in background but I got the following problem. When I create a snapshot LV and copy data from it to backup storage it works perfect. Then I do umount and then lvremove. lvremove asks me if I really want to remove the volume and then just hangs forever. In the same time affected domU almost hangs too - it becomes very slow but still live. The only solution of this situation is to shutdown domU, deactivate domU's LV and then run lvremove for shapshot volume.


What is your dom0/domU kernel version?
