Hi,

Would lvm recognize pseudo devices files corresponding to the actual devices.

For example:
pseudo1 ---> /dev/sda

Can I do a pvcreate on pseudo1 ??

Thanks and Regards,
Mala

LVM1 won't, LVM2 will.

You can, but vgcreate will fail (in LVM1).

Mala,

LVM1 not out of the box because of device name filtering constraints. LVM2 is able to support those.
