系统需要添加一个新的用户组“design”。一种处理方法是创建一个新的卷组来存放他们的数据。没有新的磁盘，但是现有磁盘上有大量的可用空间可以重新分配。
# pvscan
pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...)
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sda" of VG "dev" [1.95 GB / 0 free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdb" of VG "sales" [1.95 GB / 1.27 GB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdc" of VG "ops" [1.95 GB / 564 MB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdd" of VG "dev" [1.95 GB / 0 free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sde" of VG "ops" [1.95 GB / 1.9 GB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdf" of VG "dev" [1.95 GB / 1.33 GB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdg1" of VG "ops" [996 MB / 432 MB free]
pvscan -- ACTIVE PV "/dev/sdg2" of VG "dev" [996 MB / 632 MB free]
pvscan -- total: 8 [13.67 GB] / in use: 8 [13.67 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0]

所选卷上仍然使用了一些空间，因此有必要将已使用的空间移动到其他卷上。
将所有已使用的物理扩展从 /dev/sdg1 移动到 /dev/sde，以及从 /dev/sdg2 移动到 /dev/sdf
# pvmove /dev/sdg1 /dev/sde
pvmove -- moving physical extents in active volume group "ops"
pvmove -- WARNING: moving of active logical volumes may cause data loss!
pvmove -- do you want to continue? [y/n] y
pvmove -- doing automatic backup of volume group "ops"
pvmove -- 141 extents of physical volume "/dev/sdg1" successfully moved
# pvmove /dev/sdg2 /dev/sdf
pvmove -- moving physical extents in active volume group "dev"
pvmove -- WARNING: moving of active logical volumes may cause data loss!
pvmove -- do you want to continue? [y/n] y
pvmove -- doing automatic backup of volume group "dev"
pvmove -- 91 extents of physical volume "/dev/sdg2" successfully moved

现在，从 dev 中分割出 /dev/sdg2 并将其添加到名为“design”的新组中。可以使用 vgreduce 和 vgcreate 来完成此操作，但 vgsplit 命令将两者结合在一起。
# vgsplit dev design /dev/sdg2
vgsplit -- doing automatic backup of volume group "dev"
vgsplit -- doing automatic backup of volume group "design"
vgsplit -- volume group "dev" successfully split into "dev" and "design"
|
接下来，从 ops 中移除 /dev/sdg1 并将其添加到 design 组。
# vgreduce ops /dev/sdg1
vgreduce -- doing automatic backup of volume group "ops"
vgreduce -- volume group "ops" successfully reduced by physical volume:
vgreduce -- /dev/sdg1
# vgextend design /dev/sdg1
vgextend -- INFO: maximum logical volume size is 255.99 Gigabyte
vgextend -- doing automatic backup of volume group "design"
vgextend -- volume group "design" successfully extended
|
现在创建一个逻辑卷。与其分配所有可用空间，不如保留一些备用空间，以备其他地方需要。
# lvcreate -L750M -n users design
lvcreate -- rounding up size to physical extent boundary "752 MB"
lvcreate -- doing automatic backup of "design"
lvcreate -- logical volume "/dev/design/users" successfully created
