Subject: [linux-lvm] relocate on write for snapshot
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2004 11:39:07 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1100882347.2984.32.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Hi, I wonder if there are any thought about a relocate on write policy
for snapshot instead of copy on write policy used now?

instead of copy old one to snapshot, overwrite old one with new one, 2
writes and 1 reads. it is possible that write new data to a usused
location directly.

i know later remove a snaphot will be a little trouble, but there must
be some way to get around it.

just a rough thought, any comment?
