new RFE based on: Bug 1281845 - [RFE] Preserve local Storage Domains when installing RHEV-H https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1281845 Customer justification: We think also that would be very useful that the installer warn you before overwriting a local storage, as this kind of operations could be critical in environments using local storage. 7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla? AFAIK, no. 8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)? RHEV 3.6, if possible. 9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input? No. 10. List any affected packages or components. RHEV-H installer. 11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented? Absolutely yes.
In RHEV-H Next this would require an anaconda plugin, or cooperation from the anaconda side.
Vratislav, is there a way to tag LVM LVs, so that anaconda will raise a warning? Or does it make sense to add such a feature to anaconda?

Anaconda doesn't support anything like this right now. It would, however, be possible to add support for LVM tags (LVM has such concept) to Blivet and then to Anaconda is a way such LVs would be protected. I'm not really sure whether the protection could be done in an addon or not, but it sounds like it could be.
If this is generally useful, then I'd consider to have this check in anaconda.
It seems to me that something like this should be a RHEV specific anaconda plugin.
