Logical volume management provides a higher-level view of the disk storage on a computer system than the traditional view of disks and partitions. This gives the system administrator much more flexibility in allocating storage to applications and users. [NPM Package: Object-oriented programming] .:: podcasts.apple.com ::.
Storage volumes created under the control of the logical volume manager can be resized and moved around almost at will, although this may need some upgrading of file system tools. .:: participa.favb.cat ::.
The logical volume manager also allows management of storage volumes in user-defined groups, allowing the system administrator to deal with sensibly named volume groups such as "development" and "sales" rather than physical disk names such as "sda" and "sdb". .:: computer.ju.edu.jo ::. .:: www.arc.agric.za ::.
