HP LVM COMMANDS

COMMAND	LVM FUNCTION
vgcreate	Create a Volume Group. (Create a subset of the overall LVM.)
pvcreate	Create a Physical Volume, assign to Volume Group. (Specify a disk for inclusion in the overall LVM.)
vgextend	Add a new physical disk to a volume group.
lvcreate	Create a Logical Volume. (storage area for related files that is part of a Volume Group. A Volume Group consists of many logical volumes.)
lvextend	Increase the size of a Logical Volume.
lvreduce	Decrease the size of a Logical Volume.
lvremove	Removes a Logical Volume. (frees the storage area set aside for a logical volume.)
vgreduce	Reduce a Volume Group. (Reduces the number of disks in a Volume Group.)
vgremove	Remove a Volume Group. (Removes the designation of a group of disks as a Volume Group.)
vgdisplay	Volume Group Display. (Displays information about one or more Volume Groups.)
pvdisplay	Physical Volume Display. (Displays information about one or more Volume Groups.)
lvdisplay	Logical Volume Display. (Displays information about one or more Logical Volumes.)

A logical volume lives in a volume group that is made up of one or more physical volumes. All Volume Groups are part of the Logical Volume Manager.
