Linux LVM(Logical Volume Manager)

假设有3个disk 分区(/dev/sda1,/dev/sda2,/dev/sda3),先用2个做一个logical volume,在上面分一个区出来,然后假设这个区数据满了,把另外一个disk 分区弄上去,不丢数据

 

基本概念

物理卷

物理分区(physical extent)

卷组

逻辑卷(logical volume)

建立2个disk分区的logical volume

1. 把/dev/sda1,/dev/sda2的分区类型修改为0x8e,"linux LVM" ( fdisk )

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# fdisk /dev/sda
   
   The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 89410.
   There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
   and could in certain setups cause problems with:
   1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
   2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
      (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
   
   Command (m for help): t
   Partition number (1-4): 1
   Hex code (type L to list codes): 8e
   Changed system type of partition 1 to 8e (Linux LVM)
   
   Command (m for help):
   

    

2. 建立物理卷

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# pvcreate /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 
   pvcreate -- physical volume "/dev/sda1" successfully created
   pvcreate -- physical volume "/dev/sda2" successfully created
   

    

3. 把物理卷加到卷组

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# vgcreate test /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2
   vgcreate -- INFO: using default physical extent size 32 MB
   vgcreate -- INFO: maximum logical volume size is 2 Terabyte
   vgcreate -- doing automatic backup of volume group "test"
   vgcreate -- volume group "test" successfully created and activated
   

    

   检查

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# vgdisplay -v test
   --- Volume group ---
   VG Name               test
   VG Access             read/write
   VG Status             available/resizable
   VG #                  0
   MAX LV                256
   Cur LV                0
   Open LV               0
   MAX LV Size           2 TB
   Max PV                256
   Cur PV                2
   Act PV                2
   VG Size               306.31 GB
   PE Size               32 MB
   Total PE              9802
   Alloc PE / Size       0 / 0
   Free  PE / Size       9802 / 306.31 GB
   VG UUID               6v7zQA-H22c-AeQ3-1wN1-KBV9-ByZd-LJfllT
   
   --- No logical volumes defined in "test" ---
   
   
   --- Physical volumes ---
   PV Name (#)           /dev/sda1 (1)
   PV Status             available / allocatable
   Total PE / Free PE    4901 / 4901
   
   PV Name (#)           /dev/sda2 (2)
   PV Status             available / allocatable
   Total PE / Free PE    4901 / 4901

    

4. 建立逻辑卷

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# lvcreate -L 306G -n lgdisk test
   lvcreate -- doing automatic backup of "test"
   lvcreate -- logical volume "/dev/test/lgdisk" successfully created
   

    

5. 建立文件系统

    

   mkfs -t ext3 /dev/test/lgdisk
   

    

6. mount 文件系统就可以用了

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# mount  /dev/test/lgdisk  /mnt
   

    

 

增加一个disk分区

过一段时间后,/dev/test/lgdisk满了,把/dev/sda3加上去用

如果卷组有多的空间,直接调用e2fsadm就可以了,下面我们做的事情是假设要加一个硬盘上去

1. umount 文件系统

2. 增加卷组

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# pvcreate /dev/sda3
   pvcreate -- physical volume "/dev/sda3" successfully created

    

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]#  vgextend  test /dev/sda3
   vgextend -- INFO: maximum logical volume size is 2 Terabyte
   vgextend -- doing automatic backup of volume group "test"
   vgextend -- volume group "test" successfully extended
   

    

3. 增长逻辑卷

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# lvextend -L+300G /dev/test/lgdisk
   lvextend -- extending logical volume "/dev/test/lgdisk" to 606 GB
   lvextend -- doing automatic backup of volume group "test"
   lvextend -- logical volume "/dev/test/lgdisk" successfully extended

    

4. 增长文件系统(对ext2,ext3文件有效)

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# e2fsck -f /dev/test/lgdisk
   e2fsck 1.32 (09-Nov-2002)
   Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
   Pass 2: Checking directory structure
   Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
   /lost+found not found.  Create<y>? yes
   
   Pass 4: Checking reference counts
   Pass 5: Checking group summary information
   
   /dev/test/lgdisk: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****
   /dev/test/lgdisk: 257/40108032 files (0.0% non-contiguous), 6761839/80216064 blocks
   

    

    

   [root@SpecialProtocol root]# resize2fs /dev/test/lgdisk
   resize2fs 1.32 (09-Nov-2002)
   The filesystem on /dev/test/lgdisk is now 158859264 blocks long.
   

    

5. mount文件系统,就可以使用了

    

   mount  /dev/test/lgdisk  /mnt

    

配置文件

/etc/lvmconf/ ./etc/lvmtab.d/ , /etc/lvmtab
