i was reading a document where a person has configured physical volume and didn't use fdisk he just directly created the partition by "pvcreate /dev/sda"
and there are some documents which shows the utilization of fdisk and converting sda1 to "8e" type which is LVM. so the question is what is the difference b/w creating it directly on disk by pvcreate command and by using fdisk. actually i have just created the partition via direct command "pvcreate /dev/sda" it is fully functionally and i can use it as a partition but when i fdisk -l /dev/sda it shows that the disk is empty. so i am worried that is it the proper way to do it or else i may not end up with consequences.
