Subject: [linux-lvm] efficiently copying snapshot data.

Say I am using lvm to store VM disks. I have a logical volume with the
master image and the vms are snapshots created from the master LV.
I want to save this VM, copy the memory and snapshot data to a different
machine with the same master LV, and then restore the VM.
Is it possible? How can I efficiently copy only the snapshot?
Thanks,
Mike C
