Description:
LVM2 is a new userspace toolset that provide logical volume
management facilities on linux.
It is reasonably backwards-compatible with the original LVM
toolset.
To use LVM2 you need 3 things: device-mapper in your kernel,
the userspace device-mapper support library (libdevmapper) and the
userspace LVM2 tools.
LVM2 installation:
1) Install device-mapper
Ensure the device-mapper has been installed on the machine.
The device-mapper should be in the kernel (look for
'device-mapper' messages in the kernel logs) and
/usr/include/libdevmapper.h and libdevmapper.so should be
present.
The device-mapper is available from:
ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM2/device-mapper/
2) Generate custom makefiles.
Run the 'configure' script from the top directory.
If you wish to use the built-in LVM2 shell and have GNU
readline installed (http://www.gnu.org/directory/readline.html)
use: ./configure --enable-readline
If you don't want to include the LVM1 backwards-compatibility
code use: ./configure --with-lvm1=none
To separate the LVM1 support into a shared library loaded by
lvm.conf use: ./configure --with-lvm1=shared
3) Build and install LVM2.
Run 'make install' from the top directory.
4) Create a configuration file
The tools will work fine without a configuration file being
present, but you ought to review the example file in
doc/example.conf.
For example, specifying the devices that LVM2 is to use can
make the tools run more efficiently - and avoid scanning
/dev/cdrom!
Please also refer to the WHATS_NEW file and the manual pages
for the individual commands.
