This post is related to running Virtuozzo Windows 2003 32 bit systems. One important parameter on 32 bit version of Windows 2003 (and probably other versions of Windows, but not relevant in this post) is the so called Non Paged Memory Pool.
Let’s assume the following scenario. You have a server running some services and using LVM. Let’s also assume that you just deployed a second server which will use the same data existing in one LV device on the first server. Assuming again that both servers are connected in the same network (that’s not mandatory, but if the LV device is big, it will take forever to copy the data), we can use “nc” and “dd” utilities to dump an LV content through a network tunnel.
