Hi,
We have installed RHEL 4.7 on a single disk (actually two disk in hardware RAID). Part of it use regular partions and others LVM2 logical volumes. To my surprise, when running pvs or pvscan, the swap partition is shown has LVM2:
# pvscan
PV /dev/sda5 VG vgsys lvm2 [53,19 GB / 32,19 GB free]
PV /dev/sda3 lvm2 [65,21 GB]
Total: 2 [118,39 GB] / in use : 1 [53,19 GB] / in no VG: 1 [65,21 GB]
But if I type fdisk -l /dev/sda, sda3 is a good old swap partition:
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disque /dev/sda: 72.7Go, 72746008576 octets
255 têtes, 63 secteurs/piste, 8844 cylindres
Unités = cylindres de 16065 * 512 = 8225280 octets
Périphérique Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 * 14 332 2562367+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 * 333 1899 12586927+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda4 * 1900 8844 55785712+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 * 1900 8844 55785681+ 8e Linux LVM
I do not think this is a big problem but I am curious of why and could it be a problem?
Thanks for your help,
Bernard
