Ah, okay, thanks.  When I do that, I get 

[billw@dom0 Desktop]$ sudo lvs
  LV                                        VG         Attr       LSize   Pool  
 Origin                  Data%  Meta%  Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
  pool00                                    qubes_dom0 twi-aotz-- 906.96g       
                         52.49  28.32                           
  root                                      qubes_dom0 Vwi-aotz-- 906.96g 
pool00                         2.14                                   
  swap                                      qubes_dom0 -wi-ao----   7.55g   

and so forth.

Does that mean that my drive is actually 81% full with only 450 GB of VMs?  I 
sure hope not.  That's over 50% overhead!                 

Cheers

BillW
