> Andy: snap exclusion...

This will be a bit tricky. I can add an option that skips a pattern in the mount point or the source lvol but then it won't be shown at all. Snapshot volumes are not real filesystems but are actually a composite of the unchanged blocks in the original filesystem plus an image of the changed blocks. It only has meaning when it is mounted and will match the size of the snapped volume rather than the raw disk space.

I will enhance bdfmegs to identify snap volumes and figure out some way to represent usage. mount -p reports snapsize but this isn't relevant for filesystems that bdf is representing so I will probably exclude snaps in sum totals.

Bill,

I would be totally fine, if the snapshot volumes could be excluded from bdfmegs entirely. There is a great little program called snapbdf that I use to collect and capture the snapshot data for. Thank you you so much, i am amazed that you would edit your script for just one person! THANK YOU so MUCH!

Andy
