LVM : Configure Mirroring Volume2021/03/08 |
|
Configure Mirroring Volumes. It is like RAID 1.
|
|
| [1] | For example, create a Mirroring Volume with Physical Volume [/dev/sdb1] and [/dev/sdc1]. |
|

| [2] | If you'd like to set mirroring volume from a normal logical volume which is already running, Configure like follows. |
|
# extend the volume group [root@dlp ~]# vgextend vg_data /dev/sdc1 Volume group "vg_data" successfully extended # set mirroring volume [root@dlp ~]# lvconvert -m1 /dev/vg_data/lv_data /dev/sdc1
Are you sure you want to convert linear LV vg_data/lv_data to raid1 with 2 images enhancing resilience? [y/n]: y
