|'''Volume Groups (VG)'''  
|'''Volume Groups (VG)'''
|Physical volumes are combined into volume groups. (e.g. my_vg = /dev/sda + /dev/sdb.)
|
|-
|'''Logical Volumes (LV)'''
|A volume group is divided up into logical volumes
(e.g. my_vg divided into my_vg/data, my_vg/backups, my_vg/home, my_vg/mysqldb and so on)

== Create LVM with two or more disk ==
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
    #assuming we have two device sdb and sdc
    _pvs=( /dev/sdb /dev/sdc )
    for _pv in "${_pvs[@]}"
    do 
        echo "Create PV (Physical Volume) : $_pv"
        pvcreate $_pv
    done


    # Create VG (Volume Group) using PVs
== Best Practices ==
    sudo vgcreate $_vgname /dev/sdb /dev/sdc


    # Create LV (Logical Volume) using VG
* 최신 버전 사용 권장
    sudo lvcreate -n $_lvname -l 100%free --wipesignatures y --yes --zero y $_vgname
* 공식 문서 참고
* 테스트 환경에서 먼저 검증


    # Format LVM Partition depending on the filesystem

    #sudo mkfs.xfs  /dev/$_vgname/$_lvname


    # mount LVS to mount point, example /mnt/storage

    sudo mkdir -p /mnt/storage
    sudo mount /dev/$_vgname/$_lvname /mnt/storage

    echo '/dev/$_vgname/$_lvname  /mnt/storage  ext4  defaults 0 0' | sudo  tee -a /etc/fstab

Detailed Explanation

LVM(Logical volume management) creates an easy to use layer over multiple physical disks. We can combine multiple disks and create logical storage volumes. LVM features are[1]

  1. No restriction on disk size
  2. Increased disk throughput
  3. Mirroring volumes for business critical data
  4. Volume snapshots
  5. Easy backups and restores using snapshots
  6. Easy data relocation
  7. Resizing storage pools (add or remove disks) without reformatting disks
Type Description Example
Physical Volumes (PV) Actual disks (e.g. /dev/sda, /dev,sdb, /dev/vdb and so on) display physical volumes

$sudo pvs

Volume Groups (VG)


Best Practices

  • 최신 버전 사용 권장
  • 공식 문서 참고
  • 테스트 환경에서 먼저 검증
