LVM snapshot not mountable

LVM snapshot not mountable

This might be LVM specific, please apologize. For the first time I play 
around with LVM snapshots. I tried this:
lvcreate -s -n dbsnap -L 4G -v /dev/db/mysql
mount /dev/db/dbnap /mnt
but the mount fails, dmesg says:
[  598.440324] XFS: Filesystem dm-1 has duplicate UUID - can't mount

How could I mount it?

mount -o ro,norecovery,nouuid /dev/db/dbnap /mnt

or use

 xfs_admin -U generate /dev/db/dbnap

to give it a different uuid first in case you're dealing with a
writeable snapshot.

Simply read the message : you cannot mount 2 xfs filesystems with the
same UUID at the same time. Obviously the snapshot carries the same UUID
as the original. Use the "nouuid" option to mount it.
