Ideally the new property + would just be able to push the LV to the :VOLUMES hostattrs, but that is + tricky because LVs are presently not TOP-LEVEL-VOLUMEs, instead contained + within objects representing VGs. Perhaps we could lift LVs to the top + level, with just a reference to the name of their VG, like we have with PVs. + We would probably still want it to be possible to include VGs in the list of + volumes, optionally, for specifying VG-level options like extent size. + Connections ----------- |
