A. LVM The Logical Volume Manager (LVM) is a device mapper framework that provides logical volume management for the Linux kernel. LVM allows for flexible disk management, enabling the resizing of partitions (logical volumes) on the fly without the need for unmounting or reformatting them. This capability makes it an ideal choice for systems where disk space requirements may change over time, providing administrators with the ability to increase or decrease the size of partitions as needed without disrupting services.
LVM why creating confusion ?
LVM is the best tool to allow a technician to increase a partition's size in the future without reformatting it. LVM provides flexibility in managing storage by abstracting physical storage devices into logical volumes that can be resized, extended, or shrunk without the need to reformat or repartition the file system. This makes it an ideal choice for dynamically managing storage on a Linux server.
