Umm... because one of the big selling points of btrfs is that it is in a much better position to make snapshots being aware of the fs tree rather than doing it in the block layer. So it is kind of silly in the first place to be using lvm snapshots under btrfs, but it is is doubly silly to use lvm for snapshots, and btrfs for the mirroring rather than lvm. Pick one layer and use it for both functions. Even if that is lvm, then it should also be handling the mirroring. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUbLUxAAoJEI5FoCIzSKrwh0oH/3TZ2oo8u2BjHYO3b0x8800/ LFkmGFWrZFSnAvtWuN5B1WlhMXku4dxLRXz14fJKFp3fNmnYRNVvw3tu9btvsBsC sZdwLaKwKPHTK8RS+QCI2pZPX+cGB+F7/z9PCHrzIzzCKk/4SvnJ76e2nnZFpY1m Md3f1BCHEVUPMMXbqv6Ry6v7PDs/8bx8WITYyAL9uh3tjh0dXQsjbZJn5u4XDitS /CoE8eX4rf1vc7qHI4K56TtArCcXQxAHcC56fXmcmS03bVhAkkJ5Z+/uwi6+TkJe 55rMFCd7UFy9pwKha3Q2flJHtDYG6ns7Njyff6BSL9Yzq7tHh4wLk1H3XxaOCP8= =ktv/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
