Hi all,
Is it possible to create sparse block devices with LVM (logical volumes
not
volume groups) on RHEL6 like ZFS does??
Do you mean something like this (from the lvcreate man page):
"lvcreate --virtualsize 1T --size 100M --snapshot --name sparse vg1"
creates a sparse device named /dev/vg1/sparse of size 1TB with space
for just under 100MB of actual data on it.

Yes, but If I understand good, these options are only valid for snapshots ... I am
trying to do a sparse logical volume without using snapshots ...
