RE: [Xen-users] migrate file-based vm to lvm?


Would it be "better" to migrate to separate lvm volumes for each partition?
Are there advantages to that approach besides easier access from dom0?

Thanks much,
Tim

It should work - all you're doing is changing how the host presents the
data to the domU, not how the domU O/S sees the data.  So, you're still
going to be making the LVM volume xvda or hda in the guest, which means
the guest is still going to see the partitions.  Accessing a partitioned
LVM volume on dom0 may be a little tricky, but there shouldn't be any
problems inside domUs.
