I wouldn't say: Dom0 maintains LVs for the DomUs, and the DomUs maintain their 
own 
LVs, doing their own local space management.

At the time when I tried it, SLES10 was unable to find the root LV on boot. 
They 
released an update to mkinitrd (regarding LVM) recently, but I heven't 
re-checked 
if it would work now. I've created LVs in Dom0 for each DomU, pushing a 
namespace 
problem into Dom0...

Ulrich
