Hi (again):

> He asked only general lvm not in 11iv3 or 11iv2.

In my opinion, you could easily have asked the interviewer which version was the basis for the question; _OR_ you could have answered with additional comments that on 11.31, doing a 'mkdir' and 'mknod' of the VG directory and group are optional and if you elect to do it manually, the minor number changes from 64 to 128 if you specify a version 2.x volume group.

If giving too many details would be a distraction, I would at least have said something to the effect that beginning with 11.31, there are some minor differences and/or shortcuts. This gives the interviewer a chance to further probe you and should pique his/her interest in your skills.

Regards!

Re: LVM ISSUE

hi subrata,

Please keep in mind. Interviewer always test how confidence you have on what you know, not how much you know. If you feel your reply is right, you should have asked him I am sure with my points and tell me where if i am wrong. This will make them more interest to take you ahead.

Do not give typical answer, show your skill in giving the answer in the way.
