How to Manage Linux Server Storage Pools with LVM

Episode 54 of Linux Server Admin with Fexingo dives into Logical Volume Manager (LVM) for flexible server storage. Lucas and Luna walk through a real-world scenario: a web server running out of disk space on its root partition. They explain how LVM's physical volumes, volume groups, and logical volumes let you resize, snapshot, and migrate storage without downtime. Specific commands include pvcreate, vgcreate, vgextend, lvextend, resize2fs, and lvcreate with the --snapshot flag. The hosts also cover when LVM adds complexity versus when it's a lifesaver, and warn against thin provisioning traps. Perfect for sysadmins managing on-prem or cloud Linux servers.
