#6 Re: Logical Volume Management: How PVs form VGs for LVs Posted by mwr (149.149.xx.xx) on Wed 23 Apr 2008 at 00:31 I don't know if it's quite that bad, at least regarding LVM. The first thing that shows up when I google lvm is its Wikipedia page. Granted, this page has a "may be too technical" tag attached to it, but the first term on the page that a new user wouldn't recognize is a link to the main page for logical volume management. The first paragraph there is: In computer storage, logical volume management or LVM is a method of allocating space on mass storage devices that is more flexible than conventional partitioning schemes. In particular, a volume manager can concatenate, stripe together or otherwise combine partitions into larger virtual ones that can be resized or moved, possibly while it is being used. which at least satisfies the "why" of LVM, even in the first sentence.
