Description Ayal Baron 2011-01-02 07:40:07 UTC
Description of problem:
In RHEVM, a Virtual Machine can have multiple disk images spread across multiple LVs.  In order to take a consistent, "live" snapshot of the entire machine, we need to be able to snapshot multiple LVs simultaneously.
This was discussed with Alasdair.

This is only needed to work with the new snapshots (see BZ#636037), not the existing snapshots.

Comment 2 Peter Rajnoha 2012-01-04 14:33:44 UTC
Let's settle the new snapshot code in place first, I'm moving this additional RFE for 6.4.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 07:22:24 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:56:09 UTC
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 6 Tom Lavigne 2012-09-07 15:18:45 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for 
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Since we are unable to provide this feature at this time,  
it has been proposed for the next release of 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Still an issue with thin provisioning.
