I'm confused about this article's statement about journaled filesystems. The cited article seems to say that LVM merely does not support barriers, which are disabled by ext3 by default anyway. So, at least according to that source, it does not seem that there is any disadvantage to running LVM with ext3 filesystems, as compared to running normal ext3 filesystems without LVM. Does anyone know whether this is correct? <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.206.25.3|71.206.25.3]] ([[User talk:71.206.25.3|talk]]) 19:39, 13 July 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Why does "ivman" redirect to this page? Not only are they mostly unrelated (both relate to hardware in linux, I suppose...) but ivman isn't otherwise mentioned here.

If I have several physical disks forming one logical volume, what happens if one of those physical disks breaks?
Do I lose all of my data on that logical volume or just the data that was stored on the broken disk?

- Your question is not best answered here; try asking on a Linux (or HP-UX) forum or newsgroup or mailing list... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.165.132.250 (talk) 00:50, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
HP-UX LVM
LVM is a HP-UX product - and in fact, the HP-UX page connects to this page via "Logical Volume Manager". Certainly, LVM under Linux is worth an entry - but there should be an entry for LVM under HP-UX too, da? Why isn't there one? Need I make one? Or did I miss something?

This page could really use an image showing the different LVM "Layers" (PV,VG,LV) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.151.254.241 (talk) 20:07, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Barriers and ext3
I'm confused about this article's statement about journaled filesystems. The cited article seems to say that LVM merely does not support barriers, which are disabled by ext3 by default anyway. So, at least according to that source, it does not seem that there is any disadvantage to running LVM with ext3 filesystems, as compared to running normal ext3 filesystems without LVM. Does anyone know whether this is correct? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.206.25.3 (talk) 19:39, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
