Has anybody tried this?
regards, Dharshan

Snapshots are currently not very useful since it shuts down the server. Are there any plans for snapshots that dont shut down the server? <br> <br>Is there any other option for me to configure LVM inside the machine?
Hi Stefan, <br> <br>I am happy to use DO backup if it solves my needs. I need a point in time backup - can be scheduled or on demand. Can you share some details of the backup process? Is it based on snapshots and how long does it typically complete? <br> <br>
