>EVMS brings a new model of volume management to Linux®.
|
|
EVMS integrates all aspects of volume management,
|
|
such as disk partitioning, Linux logical volume manager (LVM) and
|
|
multi-disk (MD) management, and file system operations into a single
|
|
cohesive package.
|
|
With EVMS, various volume management technologies are accessible through
|
|
one interface, and new technologies can be added as plug-ins as they are developed.</P
