i always meet this error when i create 142th snapshot.
I changed kernel dm code a bit so it now allow large # of snapshots to

it does not reach kernel part yet.

also i can meet same error when i just create LV not snapshot on a fresh
system with a empty vg initially. this time i can create around 282 LV
before fail.
i run this script.

a=1
while [ "$a" -le $LIMIT ]
do
lvcreate -L20M -nv$a vgtest
free
let "a+=1"

There is currently a 64k hard-coded limit on metadata size.
Some of the lvm2 tool algorithms also get quite slow when
there are lots of entities.
Keep an eye on the CVS code - there was an allocation speed-up
added recently, and the 64k limit should be disappearing very
soon too.

Thanks a lot for this information. It seems that this limitation is per
VG.

I've put a fix into CVS today - try the current CVS code.
Note that you'll also need to use pvcreate --metadatasize
to support large metadata areas.
Also be aware of the current memory restrictions on snapshots:
after creating a certain number of snapshots you'll find
the kernel refuses to let you have any more.
