If you use sdb only for data, you don't have need to use partition on the disk.
Though that's true, keeping 1 partition per disk for each LVM PV adds additional 'visibility' by tools like fdisk/[cs]fdisk, parted etc. showing the partition type to be 'Liinux LVM'.
Using the whole disk, blkid or lsblk will provide that information still, e.g. 'blkid --match-token TYPE=LVM2_member'. Heinz

If it's too late to fix, it might help to create new LV that uses only one of the partitions, e.g. lvcreate -n lv -L size vg /dev/sdb2, and then copy your current LV to the new one. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ -- .~. /V\ // \\ /( )\ ^`~'^ _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
