## FIX HOST LVM (Need to add new volume to VGmysql )
'''
pvdisplay

```

* prepare our new partitions for LVM:



pvcreate /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1


Let's revert this last action for training purposes:
pvremove /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1



pvdisplay

ow let's create our volume group fileserver and add /dev/sdb1 - /dev/sde1 to it:

vgcreate fileserver /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1

vgdisplay

Another command to learn about our volume groups:

vgscan

rename our volumegroup fileserver into data:

vgrename fileserver data

remove

vgremove data

Next we create our logical volumes share (40GB), backup (5GB), and media (1GB) in the volume group fileserver. Together they use a little less than 50% of the available space (that way we can make use of RAID1 later on):

lvcreate --name share --size 40G fileserver
lvcreate --name backup --size 5G fileserver
lvcreate --name media --size 1G fileserver

lvdisplay


rename our logical volume media into films:

lvrename fileserver media films

lvremove /dev/fileserver/films

Now let's enlarge media from 1GB to 1.5GB:

lvextend -L1.5G /dev/fileserver/media

Let's shrink it to 1GB again:

lvreduce -L1G /dev/fileserver/media

create file system:

mkfs.ext3 /dev/fileserver/share

reszie fs

mkfs.reiserfs /dev/fileserver/media


mkdir /var/media /var/backup /var/share


mount /dev/fileserver/share /var/share
mount /dev/fileserver/backup /var/backup
mount /dev/fileserver/media /var/media
