I have to do my obligitory

LVM Rocks Hard !!!!!  Woo Hooo !!!!!!!!

Excerpts from a backup script.

/sbin/lvcreate -L4G -s --name=snap /dev/Volume00/LogVol00
mkdir /mnt/snap
mount /dev/Volume00/snap /mnt/snap

source ssh-agent-info
# send the accounts over to the backup server
rsync --verbose  --progress --stats --compress --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh \
 --recursive --times --perms --links --delete \
 /mnt/snap/BAI.unidata/BAI.accounts srvbai2.schupan.com:/mnt/hd/hda1
                                                                                                                  
umount /mnt/snap
/sbin/lvremove -f /dev/Volume00/snap
rmdir /mnt/snap

It's unbelievable that a GUARANTEED steady state filesystem is this
easy.
