Problem:

User wants to add new disk and mount it in as a logical volume with LVM under Linux  system.

• Add New disk either physical or virtual disk

• reboot your Operating system and check if the disk available

           fdisk -l 

• create volume group

            vgcreate VOLUMEGROUPNAME/dev/sdb

• create logical volume 100%

            lvcreate –name NEWVOLUME -l 100%FREE VOLUMEGROUPNAME

• check that the volume is created

          lvdisplay 

• format the new volume for EXT4  or xfs

          mkfs.ext4 /dev/VOLUMEGROUPNAME/NEWVOLUME

          mkfs.xfs /dev/VOLUMEGROUPNAME/NEWVOLUME

• make directory to mount the new volume

          mkdir /data

• mount the new volume

          mount /dev/VOLUMEGROUPNAME/NEWVOLUME /data

• To mount automatically on system boot add the following line in /etc/fstab

          /dev/VOLUMEGROUPNAME/NEWVOLUME /data xfs defaults 0 0

•  reboot after adding this line or run the following command

          mount -a
