I'm having an interesting issue with snapshots. I'm running the following: linux 2.6.14 (gentoo-r5) (which I believe contains the DM in the stock 2.6.14 kernel). lvm2 2.01.14 Backup is of the snapshot. The problem: I'm finding that if I backup the snapshot, and certain files are modified, usually database-type files (cyrus-imapd's databases and the likes), they files on the snapshots see some modifications. I have not been able to reproduce this with my own databases, so I don't know what is going on. Again the question I would ask is if this is part of the known issue, or should I investigate further. Thanks, David Brown
