Using LVM snapshot to backup database

Johan Louwers

2004-04-06, 8:44 am

Are there people that have worked with LVM to snapshot a linux file
system and so backup your data. I know of people using fssnap with
Solaris to backup there file system and so there Oracle database....

Are there people that use this or know what the good things and the
bad things are of this way of doing things?
