| Summary : The Logical Volume Manager for Linux
|
Description :
LVM includes all of the support for handling read/write operations on
physical volumes (hard disks, RAID-Systems, magneto optical, etc.,
multiple devices (MD), see mdadd(8) or even loop devices, see losetup(8)),
creating volume groups (kind of virtual disks) from one or more physical
volumes and creating one or more logical volumes (kind of logical partitions)
in volume groups.
This package contains the LVM tools. You still need an LVM enhanced kernel
to use LVM. See the INSTALL and README files in the doc directory for more
information on compiling an LVM enhanced kernel.
