Comment on LVM question
kumi@feddit.online 1 week agoLVM itself does not provide redundancy, that’s RAID.
I think this is potentially a bit confusing.
LVM does provide RAID functionality and can be used to set up and manage redundant volumes.
See --type and --mirror under man 8 lvcreate.

Correct, however basically no one uses that. The MD (RAID) devices are much more common for that, including under boot drives.
See comparison on ServerFault.
