LVM Beauty

I started using lvm today…it simply rocks. Nothing more nothing less. I won’t say much…just take a look at this…and you decide if it’s worth it…
The following actions were performed WITHOUT unmounting ANY disks…

# df -HT /dev/koko/test
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/koko/test
reiserfs 200G 7.2G 193G 4% /lvm

# resize_reiserfs -s -100G /dev/koko/test (reducing the partition by 100Gb)

# lvreduce -L100G /dev/koko/test (reducing the logical volume by 100Gb)

# df -HT
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/koko/test
reiserfs 93G 7.2G 86G 8% /lvm

LVM made my day 😉
