Code
pvcreate /dev/md2


Then create the VG with this PV (you can add more PV later if you need to expand)

Code

vgcreate vgStorage /dev/md2


(Replace vgStorage with your desired name for the VG if you like)

You can check with the following commands:

pvdisplay (gives information about your PV and the created VG inside)

vgdisplay (gives information about your VG´s)

In this example vgStorage is the name to enter in Virtualizor add storage page.

just create the VG on the /home partition and give Virtualizor the name of the VG,


What would the command be to do that, or just add a new VG directory inside /home?]]> Tue, 26 Nov 2019 12:38:48 GMT https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=15933&tpg=1#p47984 <![CDATA[Adding new storage]]> https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=15933&tpg=1#p47983
