Good question. This patch would only filter out (t)hin pools, and (T)hin pool data volumes (these are the backing stores). It would not filter out Thin (V)olumes. "man lvs" lists all of the different types. By the way if you wanted thin volumes to show up in libvirt they already don't. The regular expression we are using requires items to be listed within the "devices" column of lvs and these volumes don't have anything in that column. I can work with you guys to fix that if you like. One other thing.. has anyone considered making an LVM thin pool a storage type? I assume so but just wanted to check.
