[Xen-users] Guest Disk Storage Using LVM on Host

[Ramon Berger <ramonberger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Xen Users,

I would like to add a storage to a guest machine. Is it a bad idea to use a Logical Volume on the host? I did this simply adding a second disk, creating a logical group on this disk, VolGroup01, and then created logical volumes, LogVol00, LogVol01, etc.

I then used these as storage devices on the guests. I don't mount these on the hosts and I do not share them between the guests. This seems to work, but I haven't put this into production.

I would like to know if anyone does this and if there's reason not to.

Thanks...

Ramon
