Hi,

it is great to know, is it related to the improved monitoring in ONE? I 
am getting ready for trials of ONE 4.6.

We are using shared_lvm driver, so I would like to know if the new LVM 
driver is compatible with it? Or I can expect some major issues? I 
havent had enough time to check..

Thanks Milos
