Ubuntu LVM Partition Guide: Step-by-Step

The method for disk partitioning using the Logical Volume Manager (LVM) tool in Ubuntu is as follows:

1. Install the LVM tool:
   First, you need to install the LVM tool, which can be done using the following command:

sudo apt-get install lvm2

1. initialize a physical volume

sudo pvcreate /dev/sdb1

/dev/sdb1 is the disk partition you will use to create a physical volume.

1. create a volume group

sudo vgcreate myvg /dev/sdb1

myvg is the name of the volume group, and /dev/sdb1 is the physical volume included in the volume group.

1. create a logical volume

sudo lvcreate -L 10G -n mylv myvg

The -L parameter specifies the size of the logical volume (which is 10GB), the -n parameter specifies the name of the logical volume (which is mylv), myvg is the volume group that contains the logical volume.

1. Format the disk.

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/myvg/mylv

Format the logical volume using the ext4 file system here.

1. climb

sudo mount /dev/myvg/mylv /mnt/mylv

Here the logical volume is mounted to the /mnt/mylv directory.

Here is the method for disk partitioning using LVM tools in Ubuntu. Hope this helps you.
