1. LVM 介绍:
LVM - Logical Volume Manager 是Linux系统下最强大的磁盘管理技术之一.它将您从不得不思考物理容量中解脱出来.代之以逻辑形式来思考这些容量.当您需要考虑如何替用户数据和系统文件分配空间的时候.LVM可以让您彻底忘记传统的分区做法.
简单地来说.LVM就是将众多物理设备组合成一个大的虚拟设备.用户只需思考如何在虚拟设备上做传统的空间分配策略.而将物理设备的管理交由LVM自己去处理.这个由物理设备组合所成的虚拟设备称为卷组(Volume Group).简称为VG.而用户在卷组VG上所划分的磁盘空间则称为逻辑卷(Logical Volume).简称为LV.而原始物理设备必须经过初始化处理才能加入卷组集合.这种经过特别处理的原始设备或磁盘空间则称为物理卷(Physical Volume).简称为PV.
LVM磁盘空间管理系统允许您在需要的时候重新调整大小.这也就意味着在管理磁盘空间资源方面.您将获得极大程度的自由.基本上这是很有诱惑力的.但您应该留心硬盘出错的情况.如果您没有在LVM管理中为出现这种情况而做好计划.那么您可能会丢失大量数据.
2. LVM 术语:
PV - Physical Volume - 物理卷.例如一个硬盘.或一个Software RAID设备
VG - Volume Group - 卷组.将一组物理卷收集为一个管理单元
LV - Logical Volume - 逻辑卷.等同于传统分区.可看作便准的块设备.以容纳文件系统
PE - Physical Extent - 物理块.划分物理卷的数据块
LE - Logical Extent - 逻辑块.划分逻辑卷的数据块
3, LVM 结构:
为了让大家了解关于LVM的概念和结构.实现方式等.小雷花了整整一天时间画了一个图.
突然发现自己的"设计"水准很前卫很潮流. (谁说图片不好看谁就不要看文章了! :-))
说明: /boot 这个挂载分区不能存在于VG卷组里.所以我们一般是建议单独分区.
使用LVM的基本步骤如下:
1. 安装lvm2 ( apt-get install lvm2 )
2. 使用fdisk分区指定的物理硬盘
3. 使用lvm管理工具进行lvm配置 (建立PV / VG / LV)
4. 格式化已经设置好的LV逻辑卷.挂载到指定目录.
5. 关于如何增加/删除/修改LV逻辑卷大小.请期待第2季.
4. LVM 串联和条带化:
串联 (Concatenation)
按顺序使用磁盘. 一个磁盘使用完以后使用后续的磁盘.
条带化 (Striping)
交替使用不同磁盘的空间. IO操作并行. 能够提高IO性能. Striping是RAID的基础.
5. LVM 配置步骤:
5.1 使用 fdisk 对 /dev/sdb 分区
Debian:/home/reistlin# fdisk /dev/sdb
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel Building a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x4e896764. Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous content won't be recoverable. Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite) Command (m for help): new Command action e extended p primary partition (1-4) p Partition number (1-4): 1 First cylinder (1-512, default 1): Using default value 1 Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (1-512, default 512): Using default value 512 Command (m for help): m Command action a toggle a bootable flag b edit bsd disklabel c toggle the dos compatibility flag d delete a partition l list known partition types m print this menu n add a new partition o create a new empty DOS partition table p print the partition table q quit without saving changes s create a new empty Sun disklabel t change a partition's system id u change display/entry units v verify the partition table w write table to disk and exit x extra functionality (experts only) Command (m for help): w The partition table has been altered! Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table. Syncing disks.
5.2 查看分区后的物理磁盘信息 - /dev/sdb1 状态正常
Debian:/home/reistlin# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1305 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0002db3a Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 1033 8297541 83 Linux /dev/sda2 1034 1305 2184840 82 Linux swap / Solaris Disk /dev/sdb: 1073 MB, 1073741824 bytes 128 heads, 32 sectors/track, 512 cylinders Units = cylinders of 4096 * 512 = 2097152 bytes Disk identifier: 0x4e896764 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 512 1048560 83 Linux
