→Adding Additional Space to a Fedora Volume Group from the Command Line
== Adding Additional Space to a Fedora Volume Group from the Command Line ==
Just as with the previous steps to gatehr information about the current Logical Volume Management configuration of a Fedora system, changing this configuration can be performed both from the command line and from within the graphical volume management tool. In this section we will focus on the use of command line tools before looking at the graphical tool in the next section.
In the remainder of this chapter we will assume that a new disk has been added to the system and that it is being seen by the operating system as /dev/sdb. We shall also assume that this is a new disk that does not contain any existing partitions. If existing partitions are present they should be backed up and then the partitions deleted from the disk using the ''fdisk'' utility.
