Is there a way to 'take snapshots of multiple LVM volumes' at the same time?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Is there a way to 'take snapshots of multiple volumes' at the same time? I want to backup the snapshots and thus want them to be taken at the exactly same time.
  • Can I take snapshots of /, /usr and /var at the same time?

Environment
