I'm trying to copy data from a Linux server (Ubuntu 14.04) to another. The problem is that Clonezilla is trying to copy the whole 2TB LVM2 physical volume, where the actual active partition is only 150GB. The problem is that the target server only has a 1TB drive. I've used system-config-lvm to shrink the partition to 150GB, but clonezilla is still trying to image the whole 2TB disk. Are there any workarounds, or is clonezilla going to try and write out a whole 2TB image even though in system-config-lvm it shows the vast majority (1.6TB or so) of the 2TB volume as unallocated?
Thanks in advance!
Scott

Did you mean you want to "clone" the disk from source disk to destination one, or you want to "image" the source disk by saving it as an image on destination drive?
