Creating logical volumes
Use these commands for logical volume configuration:
• lvremove
Deletes a logical volume. Any file system attached to the logical volume must be unmounted
before executing the lvremove command.
Example
lvremove /dev/vgnn/lvolx
• lvextend
Increases the size of an existing logical volume.
Example
lvextend –L size /dev/vgnn/lvolx
• lvreduce
Decreases the size of an existing logical volume. Any file system attached to the logical volume
must be unmounted before executing the lvreduce command.
Example
lvreduce –L size /dev/vgnn/lvolx
CAUTION: Data within the file system can be lost after execution of lvreduce.
Create logical volumes after you create volume groups. A logical volume must be created for each
new SCSI disk device.
