Could you elaborate? As somebody who is only passingly familiar with
this level of things, I'm curious to learn what makes LVM's snapshot so
terrible.
The idea is this: You use LVM to manage your physical storage. You
create a logical volume for each logical grouping on a server. You
expose the logical volume the ietd system to create an iSCSI device
which can then be used by another machine as a block device.
