Logical Volume Manager

Logical Volume Manager what is often referred to facilities with LVM is Linux operating system to create a virtual partition, the virtual partition that we can combine multiple hard drives into 1 partition that sangaaaaat besaaar, what can change the partition size without deleting the file contents of the partition (I volume plus a size not less) when the system is still running.

Generally this is used for LVM memartisi hardisk for desktop server but also gpp: P. For example we have 2 hard drives which each 111GB hard drive volume so sizenya total 222GB .. we are a LVM partition :

# Create a LVM physical volume nggabungin hardisk first two ...
filserver @ user: ~ $ sudo pvcreate /dev/hdc1/dev/hdd1
Password:
Physical volume "/dev/hdc1" successfully created
Physical volume "/dev/hdd1" successfully created

# To see the results
