Disclaimer: These are old instructions I last used in 2006 so read the man pages for each command to check nothings changed but it should help point you in the right direction... * vgchange -a y * lvcreate -L100G -nLogVol05 VolGroup00 * mkfs -t ext3 /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol05 * mkdir /backup * vi /etc/fstab /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05 /backup ext3 defaults 1 2 * mount /backup ... and growing an LVM group is as easy as follows... * lvextend -L300G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05 * umount /backup * e2fsck -f /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol05 * resize2fs -p /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol05 * mount /backup ... I hope that helps. Dan _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list Blueonyx@mail.blueonyx.it http://mail.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
