Hi,
I recently installed LVM snapshot application amlvm-snapshot from
https://github.com/marxarelli/amlvm-snapshot
Having fixed minor problem with the kernel device mapper paths I got it up and
running , substitute ../ with /dev and cleaning unused mount point.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS with Ubuntu Amanda packages version 2.6.1p1.
Why not include this application in the core Amanda distribution properly ?
