11.2. LVM Configuration
LVM can be configured during the graphical installation process, the text-based installation process, or during a kickstart installation. You can use the
system-config-lvm
utility to create your own LVM configuration post-installation. The next two sections focus on using Disk Druid during installation to complete this task. The third section introduces the LVM utility (system-config-lvm
) which allows you to manage your LVM volumes in X windows or graphically.
Read Section 11.1, “What is LVM?” first to learn about LVM. An overview of the steps required to configure LVM include:
- Creating physical volumes from the hard drives.
- Creating volume groups from the physical volumes.
- Creating logical volumes from the volume groups and assign the logical volumes mount points.
Two 9.1 GB SCSI drives (
/dev/sda
and /dev/sdb
) are used in the following examples. They detail how to create a simple configuration using a single LVM volume group with associated logical volumes during installation.
