[Xen-users] using LVM inside HVMs



Is it recommended to use logical volume management INSIDE a hardware virtual machine domU guest?

I was trying to think through the ramifications, and I did not think that the LVM in the master dom0 would be able to handle the partition resizing INSIDE the domU guest should such a necessity ever occur.

As a background, the physical machine is running hardware RAID. The dom0 is running LVM. The guest is using an LVM partition from dom0 as it's primary hard drive (hda).

What do you do and why?

Thank you.
