14 .2.7. Edit ing a Logical Volume
The LVM utility allows you to select a logical volume in the volume group and modify its name, size
and specify file system options. In this example, the logical volume named 'Backups" was extended
onto the remaining space for the volume group.
Clicking on the Ed i t P ro perti es button will display the 'Edit Logical Volume' pop-up window from
which you can edit the properties of the logical volume. On this window, you can also mount the
volume after making the changes and mount it when the system is rebooted. You should indicate the
mount point. If the mount point you specify does not exist, a pop-up window will be displayed
prompting you to create it. The 'Edit Logical Volume' window is illustrated below.
