That will most likely cause data corruption. You need something like LVM snapshot (if using phy:/ with LVM-backed storage) or use some storage-specific snapshot method (like vhd snapshot, which is not available on Centos 5.5: http://lxr.xensource.com/lxr/source/tools/blktap2/README). If you have snapshot (using whatever method), then you should be able to safely mount the snapshot on dom0, while domU continues to access the original storage. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users |
