Hi all:

I have just installed LVM2 onto my system.

Using LVM2 utilities and kernel modules, how do we detect lvm1 configurations/metadata that are stored in the disk?

Similiar, using LVM2 utilities, how do we create lvm1 configurations/metadata that lvm1 utilities can interpret?

Thanks,

Stanley

LVM2 tools do it automatically: run 'pvs' and look at the 'Fmt' column.

-M1 - see 'man lvm'.
