Description Steven J. Levine 2011-05-16 18:46:54 UTC 
For the RHEL 5.7 release, the documentation should be updated as necessary in support of the following features:

Steven,

This is pretty much it for Rhel5.7:

1. LVM: Automatic umount of full snapshots (bug 189462)

2. LVM: Automatic snapshot extension (bug 427298)

3. LVM: Cling tag policies (bug 433768 * This was also in RHEL6.1 *)

4. CLVM: Support for exclusively activated snapshots of clustered LVs (bug 
501437 * This was also in RHEL6.1 *)

Sent note to Petr Rockai re: item 1, with suggestion on how to address this.

Sent note to Petr Rockai with further suggestions, re item 2.

Updated lvm.conf example in appendix to 5.7 version, in conjunction with item 2

Added cling-by-tags section from 6.1 document to address point 3.

Added note to snapshot creation to address point 4, adding info that you can't do this for mirrored volumes.
