Thread: installing guest to a logical volume?

-

i'm having heck of time finding info on beginning part of installing kvm guest logical volume. see lot's of info starts after logical volume created (and whatever else has done it) not on setting lvm application:

~ how many logical volumes create single guest (is more one?)
~ mount it/ them
~ how mount them (fstab?)
~ if fstab, exact options/ syntax use?

can help?

in advance.

sorry,

got sorted out. thx.

turns out part of process/ steps in virt-manager involves choosing logical volume install to. i'm not sure whether 1 able create logical volume in step/ using virt-manager. did create logical volume lvm command it:

code:
lvcreate -l 35000 -n devsys system
this creates logical volume of 35000 mb, named devsys on volume group named system.

after fire virt-manager; and, in step it, choose use install (the parts in step virt-manager pretty straightforward).

------------------------------------------------------------

aside:

me, there 2 big questions confused about:

(1) knew typical operating system installation uses more 1 partition (at least 2 - 1 swap , sytem). wasn't sure whether needed (a) find way partition logical volume or if possible during installation; or (b) create more 1 logical volume single guest (one correspond each partition guest).


learned: i'm not sure technical details of how works, installation able create partitions in logical volume. seems have fact logical volume "block device" , treated it's hard drive in of itsels --i think.

(2) knew stuff has mounted use (partitions, file systems, whatever). wasn't sure if needed modify fstab logical volume mounted when fire computer.

learned:

lvm takes care of itself. there no need modify (least of fstab). if run:

code:
sudo lvdisplay
after create new logical volume, , see listed, available every time fire computer - works on it's own somehow
