Btw, it is better to use tap:aio or phy where the underlying device is a
LVM logical volume?

Thanks

James

Was that a question? :-) Use phy for LVM logical volumes and tap:aio if it's a file on ANY partition (LV or otherwise). I've done speed tests with both LVs and diskfiles and the LVs are faster but they don't trounce the tap:aio disk file like you'd think. In several tests the file was equal to the LVM volume.

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use Windows."
Now they have two problems.
