Hey Joe,

I want to add in additional storage to create snapshot volumes on. I
can do this from the web page, first by completely allocating all the
space on the existing volume group, adding in new devices, and then
finally setting up snapshot volumes. Ok.
Sanity questions:
1) can I set up the snapshot to go to a different volume group? I
thought I could do this from the command line, though I am now not
convinced of this.
The snapshot can go to a different PV not VG.
2) can I mount/see the snapshots from the web interface?
Snapshots of volumes containing file-level shares can be exported via
samba for sharing themselves (just select the share option for the
snapshot). Block-level shares, i.e iSCSI, are not currently exportable.
Finally, I noticed that I could not remove a PV (with no mounted file
systems on it) from a VG from the web interface.
There's no technical reason why this shouldn't be possible.
Is this intentional (I know it is dangerous). Thanks!
Not at all. Just hasn't been implemented. Yet :)
R.
