Can lvm create a Raw/Char devices?
Not a blocked device. Much like a tape device. See below the
two(listing A). The first position shows what type of device it is.
Informix and other database like to have char devices for database
space.
Listing A:
crw-r----- 1 root disk 9, 1 Jul 18 1994 /dev/st1
brw-r----- 1 root disk 34, 73 Aug 18 1995 /dev/hdh9
Thanks,
Chris Anderson

The current raw device patches will let you make character devices for
_any_ block device, including LVM devices.
