No. It is different partitions.
The live device which we are running dmsetup on is the storage for a VM.
Under the dm-raid1 DRIVE, this is a dm-crypt ORIGIN over an LVM LV over md
RAID of some partitions.
The root filesystem including the dmsetup binary is on md RAID of different
partitions of the same physical disks.

Sorry, I don't understand if this is relevant?

OK, we will try this and share when we have it.
