If you have fine-tuned filter option in lvm.conf on dom0, there is no difference for dom0 in content of vdi images. Create LVM _inside_ client VDI, like you do with physical machine.

But, again, don't forget about filter out those PV in filter option in lvm.conf.

Hello,
I need a word of an advice. I plan to deploy Xen on LVM.
Is it worth to do for domu's separated logical volumes for /, /usr, /home, /var, /tmp and swap when all them will be on the same volume group?

Or should I make only / and swap partitions and don't care about anything else?

Multiple lv's could be hard for hypervisor admin to manage, but safer for domu  OS, right?

Are there any other advantages or disadvantages of multiple lv's for domu?

Best regards
