Also discourages using LVM. I have often wondered why I use LVM on

I have read a number of articles and I can't find any solid advantage.
Well, I dont have a notebook, but a laptop (16GB RAM, Corei7-8
threads, 512 SSD Samsung 840 Pro)
I use it for work, and I heavily virtualize on it.
I have 1LV per VM. VMs are "small" (2GB RAM, 5GB disk space), but they
are numerous (mostly 4-5 VMs turned on)
When I clone a VM, the LV gets cloned too.
I find it very usefull and clean on the drive.
OK. Excellent justification for LVM. So far I have not done VMs, but I
have been thinking heavily about it. But not HOW to do it. Seems like I
probably should if I want to set up my drive now for VMs soon.
And well, my main system is a laptop, though only 12". Just the right
size to use in flight.
I'm sysadmin and I test massive deployment methods (CfEngine, custom
packagin,...)
