: LVM Hierarchy:

Logical Relationship among Disk Partition, Volume Group, Logical Volume and the File System

In LVM, one PV only corresponds with one physical disk/partition. One or more PVs comprise one VG, where several LVs can be divided virtually. LV corresponds to a disk partition of the non-LVM system, on which the file system can be made.
