XFS metadata consistency limits after LVM snapshot restoration
Rocky Linux uses LVM for snapshot-based backups and XFS as the primary filesystem, with metadata journaling intended to preserve consistency across volume group operations. Restoring a snapshot via block-level copy to a logical volume raises uncertainty about deep metadata alignment between the LVM point-in-time state and the XFS on-disk structures after the
