Thanks for the datapoint, John! Have you been running with LVM2 in
production? What kernel, both version and supplier? How big is your
biggest volume? What filesystem(s) on LVM(2)? Any significant
gotchas?
Truth be told, LVM2 only on one installation.
That is running SuSE 9.1 on Opteron, on an Infortrend 4Tbyte array.
ext3 filesystem.
Though having worked in the past for an animation company I wouldn't
dismiss xfs.
