-----------------------------\n\n
LVM2 is a Logical Volume Manager for the Linux kernel. With LVM you can\n
abstract your storage space and have "virtual partitions" which are easier\n
to modify.\n\nThe basic building block of LVM2 are:\n
- Physical volume (PV):\n
to modify.\n\n
- Physical volume (PV):\n\n
Partition on storage disk (or even storage disk itself or loopback file)\n
on which you can have virtual groups. It has a special header and is\n
divided into physical extents. Think of physical volumes as big building\n
blocks which can be used to build your storage drive.\n
- Volume group (VG):\n
- Volume group (VG):\n\n
Group of physical volumes that are used as storage volume (as one disk).\n
They contain logical volumes. Think of volume groups as storage drives.\n
- Logical volume(LV):\n
- Logical volume(LV):\n\n
A "virtual/logical partition" that resides in a volume group and is\n
composed of physical extents. Think of logical volumes as normal par-\n
titions.
