This tutorial explains how to view, list, create, add, remove, format, mount, resize and delete Physical Volume, Volume Group and Logical Volumes in Linux step by step with practical examples. Learn fundamental and basic concepts of LVM, LVM management and essential LVM commands in detail. Bas...
The volume group size is almost 60GB, and it is unused, so we can create LVs in it. Let us divide the volume group into equal sizes to create 3 Logical Volumes. That means 60GB/3 = 20GB. Each Logical Volume will be 20GB in size after creation. Method 1: Creating Logical Volumes u...
Logical Volume Management, orLVM, is a storage device management technology that gives users the power to pool and abstract the physical layout of component storage devices for flexible administration. Using thedevice mapperLinux kernel framework, the current iteration, LVM2, can be used to ga...

Linux中的LVM和软RAID 在实际工作中,会经常碰到所给的服务器硬盘容量太小,而实际的应用软件中却需要一个容量较大的分区进行数据存储等,除了通过硬件RAID卡来实现合并多硬盘外,其实我们也可以通过软件的方式来实现。 实验环境 虚拟机:CentOS 6.6 x64...
(选择分区号,默认是1,直接敲回车也可以)4、敲回车(分区起始点,没有特殊要求所以可以直接敲回车)5、敲回车(分区终点,应为食整块盘不需要预留所以默认敲回车即可)6、输入t敲回车(这种盘不能直接做lvm必须更改分区号)7、输入L敲回车(查看所有分区编号)8、输入8e敲回车(分区编号必须是8e才能做LinuxLVM)9、输入w...
In this structure, the LV ends up being something similar to the partition you would have on a hard drive. But in this case, it is part of a structure that can involve one or more disks. In the creation order, you must follow this same sequence, create your PVs, group them into one...
The Linux LVM partitions in a group can be on the same or different disks. You can add partitions or entire disks to expand the size of the group. To use an entire disk, it must not contain any partitions. When using partitions, they must not be mounted. YaST will automatically ...
