Expanding a Linux VM's LLVM Virtual Disk ZVOL [Deleted]

[Stux]

Stux submitted a new resource:

Expanding a Linux VM's LLVM Virtual Disk ZVOL - So you need more space in your VM?

If you have a Linux VM, which uses the LLVM filesystem, you can easily increase the disk space available to the VM.

Linux Logical Volume Manager allows you to have logical volumes (LV) on top of logical volume groups (VG) on top of physical volumes (PV) (ie partitions).

This is conceptually similar to zvols on pools on vdevs in zfs.

This was tested with TrueNAS-CORE 12 and Ubuntu 20.04.

Firstly, there are some useful commands:

`pvs` - list physical volumes
`lvs` - list logical volumes...
