>>> I this project dead? I'm casting about to tools to manage lvm snapshots
and roller-derby sounded promising. Any other tools out there?
Orion didn't mention /home, and Roller Derby doesn't directly address it either.
Both yum-plugin-fs-snapshot and snapper can, but snapshots coincide with system updates.
More useful is a regularly timed snapshot of the user's home, .e.g. hourly with age
based clean-up.
I'm actually not that interested in tying in with yum updates etc. I'm just
looking for a tool that might help with managing LVM snapshots in general -
and specifically for managing snapshots of VMs. Something I could perhaps say
have take a snapshot every X hours and keep the latest Y snapshots.
