I've been trying to search through the archives, but it never comes back to me.... so I'll ask here (sorry, I'm sure this has been asked before).
I'm trying to use LVM for the first time. I'm running SuSE 2.4 kernel. So I created my 2 minidisks, dasdfmt 'd them, fdasd'd them, went into Yast and chose the 2 disks and created a volume group called "prod". I rebooted and see these messages so I'm pretty sure it exists: Scanning for LVM volume groups... LVM version 0.9.1_beta7 by Heinz Mauelshagen (10/04/2001) lvm -- Module successfully initialized vgscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) vgscan -- found inactive volume group "prod" vgscan -- "/etc/lvmtab" and "/etc/lvmtab.d" successfully created vgscan -- WARNING: This program does not do a VGDA backup of your volume group Activating LVM volume groups... vgchange -- volume group "prod" successfully activated Now, I suspect I need to mke2fs it, right? My question is what is it called? The s/390 distributions redbook seems to indicate that it might be /dev/prod/lvol1, but this doens't work or seem to exist. Can someone buy me a clue? ______________________________________________ Marcy Cortes, VM Systems Programming, 415-243-6343
