[linux-lvm] [PATCH 4/2 v3] fs snapshot plugin: add LVM tag to allow tools to link pre and post snapshots

Mike Snitzer msnitzer at fedoraproject.org
Tue Mar 12 18:16:42 UTC 2013


Add a "yum_fs_snapshot_pre_lv_name=<pre_snapshot_lv>" LVM tag to the
post transaction LVM-based snapshot (old or thinp).  This tag will
allow tools (e.g snapper) to link the pre and post snapshot volumes
together.

Factored out add_lvm_tag_to_snapshot() to allow for reuse.
