I created a snapshot (LVM( backup of a guest OS.
I want to boot from this snapshot backup.
Is it possible,
I used virt-manager and options to clone the VM are greyed out on my server.
Is it possible to create an LVM so that a swap partition and a
filesystem exist inside an LVM together as is the case when I use
virt-manager
--- Logical volume ---
LV Name /dev/nintendo/lvm1
VG Name nintendo
LV UUID pM9IVB-UorL-9CtJ-qRp5-wRsX-KEKm-ws5nvc
LV Write Access read/write
LV Status available
# open 1
LV Size 100.00 GiB
Current LE 25600
Segments 1
Allocation inherit
Read ahead sectors auto
- currently set to 256
Block device 251:1
In the above LVM which is /dev/nintendo/lvm1
both a swap and a filesystem co exist that way I do not have to create
a separate swap.
Does any one has some idea?
