# BONUS: logical volume manager

{% hint style="info" %}
**logical volume management** or **LVM:** provides a method of allocating space on [mass-storage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_storage) devices that is more flexible than conventional [partitioning](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_\(computing\)) schemes to store volumes.
{% endhint %}
