RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Ayal Baron 2011-01-02 07:42:59 UTC
Description of problem:
In RHEVM, a Virtual Machine can have multiple disk images spread across multiple LVs. Right now, these images are limited to the same VG, but we are going to remove this limitation.
In order to take a consistent, "live" snapshot of the entire machine, we will need to be able to snapshot multiple LVs from different VGs simultaneously (pause multiple kernel targets?).
This was discussed with Alasdair, who raised a concern about running out of memory if done in kernel.

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

Comment 1 Sayan Saha 2011-05-27 12:29:00 UTC
Current capacities do not allow inclusion of this RFE in RHEL 6.2. Moving this out to RHEL 6.3 for re-consideration.

Comment 2 Peter Rajnoha 2012-01-04 14:34:02 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 07:22:18 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 23:56:15 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 15:18:50 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.
