Chapter 5. LVM Configuration Examples

This chapter provides some basic LVM configuration examples.

5.1. Creating an LVM Logical Volume on Three Disks

This example procedure creates an LVM logical volume called new_logical_volume that consists of the disks at /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1, and /dev/sdc1.
  1. To use disks in a volume group, label them as LVM physical volumes with the pvcreate command.

    Warning

    This command destroys any data on /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1, and /dev/sdc1.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # pvcreate /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
  Physical volume "/dev/sda1" successfully created
  Physical volume "/dev/sdb1" successfully created
  Physical volume "/dev/sdc1" successfully created
  2. Create the a volume group that consists of the LVM physical volumes you have created. The following command creates the volume group new_vol_group.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # vgcreate new_vol_group /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
  Volume group "new_vol_group" successfully created
    You can use the vgs command to display the attributes of the new volume group.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # vgs
  VG            #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize  VFree
  new_vol_group   3   0   0 wz--n- 51.45G 51.45G
  3. Create the logical volume from the volume group you have created. The following command creates the logical volume new_logical_volume from the volume group new_vol_group. This example creates a logical volume that uses 2 gigabytes of the volume group.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # lvcreate -L 2G -n new_logical_volume new_vol_group
  Logical volume "new_logical_volume" created
  4. Create a file system on the logical volume. The following command creates a GFS2 file system on the logical volume.
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    # mkfs.gfs2 -p lock_nolock -j 1 /dev/new_vol_group/new_logical_volume
This will destroy any data on /dev/new_vol_group/new_logical_volume.
