>>i don't believe IBM ever released their lvm as open-source. Luca, This is where I got the idea about IBM and LVM releases.. http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reports/1848/1/ "On the other hand, IBM has released the source code to its Journaled File System (JFS) and Logical Volume Manager (LVM) from the AIX operating system so that these technologies can be deployed on Linux. The company has not publicly stated which other products, if any, will be released as Open Source code in the near future. All of the kernel and GNU C changes, however, are released as Open Source." http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=959686&admit=-682735245+1172394847567+28353475 "I have never worked on AIX, but during my participation in this forum I have many times read that HP's LVM is drived from IBM's LVM." --- Luca Berra <bluca@comedia.it> wrote: > On Thu, Feb 22, 2007 at 12:40:25AM -0800, k wrote: > >Do you know if IBM licensed, LVM to HP, and also > >released it to the open source for linux > developments? > i don't believe IBM ever released their lvm as > open-source. > > >Did Linux (Sistina) LVM derived from the IBM's LVM? > Is > >HP's LVM also drived from IBM's LVM? > > Sistina LVM is based on HP-UX LVM, in the sense that > it was designed to > have a similar command syntax and data structure. > but the code does not > have any connection to any other LVM. > > regards, > L. > > -- > Luca Berra -- bluca@comedia.it > Communication Media & Services S.r.l. > /"\ > \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN > X AGAINST HTML MAIL > / \ > > _______________________________________________ > linux-lvm mailing list > linux-lvm@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm > read the LVM HOW-TO at > http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ > _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
