Hi Daniel:

An excellent beginning work is the "Managing Systems and Workgroups" guide. Have a look at chapter-6 therein:

Dan,

best thing is man LVM, also see the links as mentioned above.

The starting point is
PV - Phisical Volume (A Disk)
VG - Logical Disk contains one ot more PVs
LV - Logical Volumes created as per requirements on VGs

man LVM

Shalom Daniel,

Another good way to learn is to use sam and look at the command logs after doing some LVM transactions.

Also searching itrc for specific tasks on LVM will yield plenty of command line ideas.

I began doing LVM on the command line at an HP Education course years ago and almost exclusively do things that way today.

And you can "practice" on Linux!
LVM is available on Linux too!
