Hello Everyone,
I am trying to create a snap shot with evms.

I am using evms-2.3.3-52 (patched oes suse linux).

Kernel 2.6.5-7.283

I am trying to snap-shot a multipath eva volume that
is inside a container to a second multipath eva disk.

the volume is 
/dev/evms/c1/g1

the second disk is also multipathed , but I tired
turing off multipathing on that disk.

when I try to create the snapshot I get back a message
saying "invalid handle"


I have tried several different methods, but none seem
to work.

My question is I have a multipath volume in a evms
cluster container. What do i need to do to create a
snapshot?

I try the evms:
create:object,Snapshot={original=/dev/evms/c1/d1,snapshot="snapper",writeable=flase,chunksize=64kb},sdd1

response: 
sdd1 was rejected with error:Invalid argument

I try creating a volume and creating containers and
putting sdd1 in them. I also tried just sdd. Anyone
have any idea?

best regards,
Martin Roby
