Answer / yogendra kiran kumar
1) Create 2 LVM partitions using
# fdisk /dev/sda
id for lvm --> 8e
2) # partprobe [ to update kernal ]
3) # pvcreate pv1 /dev/sda{6,7}
[ pv1 is physical volume label and 6,7 are the partition
no's it may differ in ur system ]
4) # pvdisplay
[ to display the physical volume info ]
5) # vgcreate vg1 /dev/sda{6,7}
[ to create logical volume group ]
6) # lvcreate -L 700M -n lv1 vg1
[ to create ur required size partition of lvm ]
[ lv1 is lvm label]
7) # lvdisplay
[ to know about the logical volume ]
8) # mkfs.ext3 /dev/vg1/lv1
[ to give file system ]
9) # mkdir /lv1
# mount /dev/vg1/lv1 /lv1
[ to mount the lv1 to as a seperate disk ]

Answer / karan
First create 2 partition by using
fdisk /dev/hda
and give id =8e
now "w" to write partition and "partprobe" for update the
kernel for new partition
now
#pvcreate /dev/hda{7,8}
#vgcreate vg0 /dev/hda{7,8}
#lvcreate --name HR --size +3000M /dev/vg0
now make a directory named "HR"
#mkdir /HR
#mkfs.ext3 /dev/vg0/HR
now make entry in /etc/fstab, like
# vi /etc/fstab
/dev/vg0/HR /HR ext3 defaults 1 2
now save and exit
and
#mount /dev/vg0/HR /HR
#mount -a
now you can check all by these commands
#pvdisplay
#vgdisplay
you scan also like these command
#pvscan
#vgscan
