Good suggestion, no it's not ESX, but it does do snapshots. -Ross

You're not running esx are you? Heh, I just did the same thing on a much smaller scale. Couldn't afford the long downtime while a copy took place so I shut the vm's off, snapped it and restarted it. I then scripted all files "without" 00000 in the name to rsync over (ssssslowly). I then only had to shut the vm off and sync the small snap's and restart the vm's on other storage. Only took a few minutes. jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
