This guide shows how to work with LVM (Logical Volume Management) on Linux. It also describes how to use LVM together with RAID1 in an extra chapter. As LVM is a rather abstract topic, this article comes with a Debian Etch VMware image that you can download and start, and on that Debian Etch system you can run all the commands I execute here and compare your results with mine. Through this practical approach you should get used to LVM very fast.
This tutorial was inspired by two articles I read:
These are great articles, but hard to understand if you've never worked with LVM before. That's why I have created this Debian Etch VMware image that you can download and run in VMware Server or VMware Player (see http://www.howtoforge.com/import_vmware_images to learn how to do that).
