This is LVM2, the rewrite of The Linux Logical Volume Manager.
|
|
LVM supports enterprise level volume management of disk and disk
|
|
subsystems by grouping arbitrary disks into volume groups. The total
|
|
capacity of volume groups can be allocated to logical volumes, which
|
|
are accessed as regular block devices.
|
|
|
|
The Linux Kernel Device Mapper is the LVM
|
|
(Linux Logical Volume Management) Team's implementation of a
|
|
minimalistic kernel-space driver that handles volume management,
|
|
while keeping knowledge of the underlying device layout in
|
|
user-space. This makes it useful for not only LVM, but EVMS,
|
|
software raid, and other drivers that create "virtual" block devices.
