For the click-and-pointers there's the EVMS GUI interface and the package offers an ncruses-based TUI for the intermediate system administrator. Of course, professionals do it with the command line. Execution of volume management related tasks is explained using these three interfaces. Version 2.0 of the <ulink url="http://tldp.org/LDP/EVMSUG/html/index.html">EVMS User Guide</ulink> is still maintained by Christine Lorenz, Joy Goodreau and Kylie Smith and certainly worth a check.

<para>John R. Daily <ulink url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:5728:200311:cjacdkoodeefcahlogcd">said</ulink> that there might be value to having small documents available as part of the LDP library that describe key concepts like DNS, the TCP/IP protocol, init scripts, DTDs, shared libraries. The ones that have surely been described repeatedly so that new text need not be invented in the HOWTOs. Martin WHEELER delighted and <ulink url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:5737:200311:kbpdbbmeddmahbikkfbi">asked</ulink> if someone could setup a wiki somewhere, one page per WHATIS. David Lawyers <ulink url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:5747:200311:claiepedajakajhoajgg">opinion</ulink> was that there should be a WHATIS co-ordinator and a way to handle many of these WHATIS documents.</para>
