I'm using DRBD 8 and LVM for a number of KVM guests. Each guest is its<br>
own LVM, and I have DRBD 8 set up to have its metadata in the<br>
partition.<br>
<br>
I would like the ability to grab an LVM image of a guest partition for<br>
backup, but want to do so without the metadata (in case I need to<br>
restore the guest on a stand-alone server without DRBD). Is there a<br>
way via dd or some other tool to extract just the virtual drive and<br>
not DRBD's metadata?<br>
