>The LVM plug-in combines storage objects into groups called containers.
|
|
From these containers, new storage objects can be created, with a variety of
|
|
mappings to the consumed objects. Containers allow the storage capacity of
|
|
several objects to be combined, allow additional storage to be added in the future,
|
|
and allow for easy resizing of the produced objects.</P
