Is it possible to store snapshot lvm on another hard drive?
I'm trying to understand what lvm is. I installed Ubuntu Server with a lvm partition, then added two hard drives, 200G and 32G. the snapshot partition already exists in the dev partition. Is it really possible to store a disk snapshot on another hard disk? (I read that the presence of a snapshot slows down the system
) as far as I understand, a snapshot is the same folder, only with read permissions and, accordingly, it needs to be mounted and backed up as usual, just not using livecd and not turning off the machine. But I read about snapshots of certain folders, can you do the whole system? not to backup the mailer separately, separately the jira there, but was there a whole snapshot right away?
And how much space do you need to run a snapshot? I have a / system directory with all the guts, let's say 50G, it is located on the hard disk, the total size of which is 200G. Should I create a 50G snapshot partition?
And is it possible then to create a snapshot and mount it on the same 200GB disk?
Thank you all in advance!

It is logical that it is impossible, you can make a separate dump of this snapshot and put it on another disk.
