Please note that you can also simply drag and drop disks, partitions or RAIDs to
the LVM icon in order to edit LVM contents.
Deleting LVMs
You can easily delete any of the LVMS by selecting
Delete
menu item in its
popup menu.
LVMs Properties
Another way to control what an LVM consists of is to use its properties dialog.
Select the
Properties
menu item of any LVM to see the dialog. The
General
tab
lets you know about free and used space of an LVM. The second one called
Components
allows to manage disks, RAIDs and partitions of the LVM. This is
another way to add or remove components of LVM. Remember, that all changes
are applied on a server only after you press the
Apply
button.
Regions
Creating Regions
Regions can be created from LVMs.
1. Click the right mouse button on the
LVM
icon.
2. Select
Create Region
from the popup menu.
3. Type in the size of region you would like to create.
4. Select components (RAIDs, disks, partitions) that are preferred to place a
region at.
5. Click
the
Accept
button.
Note
It is not possible to create a Region on LVM until its (LVMs) creation is
applied to server.
