Three 10.000 rpm disks have been put in RAID 5, using Linux RAID software. The resulting device md0 has been then treated with LVM (Logical Volume Manager). Modifications to LVM (creation of volume groups and logical volumes) have been initially performed using a GUI and then with lvm shell commands.

root@serv1:~# apt-get install system-config-lvm
