hi
when i add new hard drive, normally i partition them using fdisk/parted and then format it as ext4, then i just mount them via /etc/fstab.
but if i wanted to take advantage of fast backups, i heard someone say it should be in LVM.
whats the correct procedure to do this? format as LVM and then mount it via /etc/fstab? or do i need to create logical volume groups and volumes first?
i've dealth with LVM before but i never set it up from scratch myself so would love to get some advices here. thanks.
