Dne 22. 09. 21 v 18:48 alessandro macuz napsal(a):
fdisk correctly identifies the extended partition as 8e.
I wonder which kind of data lvmdiskscan and pvs use in order to list LVM physical volumes. Does PVS check some specific metadata within the partition without just relying on the type of partition displayed by fdisk?



Hi

Yes - PVs do have header signature keeping information about PV attributes
and also has the storage area to keep lvm2 metadata.

Partition flags known to fdisk are irrelevant.
