January 19, 2023

Here’s another script that creates a volume from a snapshot, but also add the tags.

#!/bin/bash
read -p "server     : " server
read -p "volumeId   : " volume
read -p "snapshotId : " snapshot
read -p "region     : " region
read -p "zone       : " zone
read -p "profile    : " profile
# get tags
tags1=$(aws ec2 describe-volumes --volume-ids $volume --query 'Volumes[].Tags[]' --region $region --profile $profile)
# remove quotes
tags2=$(echo "$tags1" | tr -d '"')
# remove spaces
tags3=$(echo $tags2 | sed 's/ //g')
# replace : with =
tags4=$(echo $tags3 | sed 's/:/=/g')
# if empty value replace with quotes
tags5=$(echo $tags4 | sed 's/Value=}/Value=""}/g')
# create volume
aws ec2 create-volume \
--availability-zone $zone \
--encrypted \
--iops 3000 \
--volume-type gp3 \
--snapshot-id $snapshot \
--tag-specifications 'ResourceType=volume,Tags='$tags5'' \

Setup LVM on a VM

February 5, 2022

How to setup Logical Volume Manager on a VM.

Install LVM.

yum install lvm2

Check the disks available. We are going to run LVM on /dev/sdb.

$ lsblk
NAME   MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda      8:0    0   20G  0 disk 
├─sda1   8:1    0  200M  0 part /boot/efi
└─sda2   8:2    0 19.8G  0 part /
sdb      8:16   0   20G  0 disk

Create a physical volume on /dev/sdb.

$ pvcreate /dev/sdb
  Physical volume "/dev/sdb" successfully created.
$ pvs
  PV         VG Fmt  Attr PSize   PFree
  /dev/sdb   vg lvm2 a--  <20.00g    0

Create a volume group called vg.

$ vgcreate vg /dev/sdb
  Volume group "vg" successfully created
$ vgs
  VG #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize   VFree  
  vg   1   0   0 wz--n- <20.00g <20.00g

Create a 10GB logical volume group called data.

$ lvcreate -L 10G -n data vg
  Logical volume "data" created.
$ lvs
  LV   VG Attr       LSize  Pool Origin Data%  Meta%  Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
  data vg -wi-a----- 10.00g

Format the volume group and mount it.

$ mkfs.xfs /dev/vg/data
meta-data=/dev/vg/data           isize=512    agcount=4, agsize=655360 blks
         =                       sectsz=4096  attr=2, projid32bit=1

realtime =none                   extsz=4096   blocks=0, rtextents=0
Discarding blocks...Done.
$ mount /dev/vg/data /mnt

Check your logical volume. It says 10GB.

$ df -Th

devtmpfs            devtmpfs  385M     0  385M   0% /dev

/dev/mapper/vg-data xfs        10G  104M  9.9G   2% /mnt

Let’s now extend the logical volume to 20GB.

$ lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/vg/data
  Size of logical volume vg/data changed from 10.00 GiB (2560 extents) to <20.00 GiB (5119 extents).
  Logical volume vg/data successfully resized.

Although lsblk says 20GB, our logical volume still says 10GB.

$ lsblk

/dev/mapper/vg-data xfs        10G  104M  9.9G   2% /mnt

We need to grow the file system.

$ xfs_growfs /dev/vg/data
meta-data=/dev/mapper/vg-data    isize=512    agcount=4, agsize=655360 blks
         =                       sectsz=4096  attr=2, projid32bit=1

         =                       reflink=1
data     =                       bsize=4096   blocks=2621440, imaxpct=25
         =                       sunit=0      swidth=0 blks

         =                       sectsz=4096  sunit=1 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none                   extsz=4096   blocks=0, rtextents=0
data blocks changed from 2621440 to 5241856

Let’s check again.
