Quoting Steve Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Hi All,

Great software!

Let's say I have a volume group with two volumes, both Openfiler ISCSI
devices.  If I want to "clone" the first volume to the second (already
taking into account consistency of data on the volume 1, and nothing is
using volume2), should I not be able to:

create a snapshot of volume1
dd if=/dev/volume_group_name/volume1.snapshot.created.above
of=/dev/volume_group_name/volume2

this is interesting. What happens if you dd the snapshot to say a file? Can you mount the file as a loopback device?

what typpe of filesystem is on the volume?
