Is snapshot now unsupported? Or am I asking the wrong questions or
directing to the wrong place. since it is an option to lvcreate and the
maintainer lists sistina, i thought this would be the place to ask
questions.

Can't speak for sistina... but I do agree with your
prior comments about it being buggy and unreliable.
In simple scenarios it seems to work ok... but
we had to use link-farm style solution instead
in order to make our disk based backup cache
work. Your (well I asuume you had this too) out
of memory condition can be somewhat handled I believe
with a larger memory initrd.... but it's a temporary
fixup at best.... we started running out
of memory again.. just took longer.
Running SUSE 8.2 with 6TB of disk backup area.
