Nope. Next time, though, consider leaving space in your LVM volume 
groups to create LVM volumes instead, because the use of LVM partitions 
instead of file images allows LVM "snapshots" to be used for backup 
operations or poking around safely inside the Dom0, by looking at the 
snapshot instead of the active filesystem.
