RE: [ADMIN] LVM snapshotsThanks all.

The conclusion there seemed to be that it ought to work just fine, but
should be tested. Well, I'll test it and see if anything interesting comes
up. If anything LVM snapshots will be less tricky than NetApp snapshots as
LVM has access to the OS's local cache buffers, whereas the NetApp doesn't
(though presumably the OS shouldn't/doesn't do any write caching when
writing to a network FS).
