Not sure if this helps, but as I am also interested in exactly
this setup you are using here let me add some data points:
```
~ [ sudo lvm lvs ] 10:40 vorm.
LV VG Attr LSize Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% Convert
data vg0 -wi-a- 200,00g
home vg0 -wi-a- 200,00g
```
```
~ [ cat /etc/fstab
... ] 10:38 vorm.
/dev/mapper/vg0-data /u ffs rw,log 0 0
/dev/mapper/vg0-home /h ffs rw,log 0 0
```
```
~ [ mount ] 10:39 vorm.
...
/dev/mapper/vg0-data on /u type ffs (log, local)
/dev/mapper/vg0-home on /h type ffs (log, local)
```
```
~ [ uname -a ] 10:40 vorm.
NetBSD x230.lan 10.1 NetBSD 10.1 (GENERIC) #0: Mon Dec 16 13:08:11 UTC 2024
[email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64
```
Summary: in NetBSD 10.1 this works.
How did you create the filesystem in the LV? newfs -O2
is required I think to use wapbl.
Recently I tried to backup a FFSv2 on LVM with wapbl enabled using
dump+fss - there seem to be further unresolved issues:

(the report is from 2017, but I can reproduce it also today)
Best regards
