Combining SCM devices with LVM

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6 LPAR mode

You can use LVM to combine multiple SCM block devices into an arbitrary sized LVM device.

Example

Configure SCM as any other block devices in LVM. If your version of LVM does not accept SCM devices as valid LVM device types and issues an error message, add the SCM devices to the LVM configuration file /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. Add the following line to the section labeled devices:

types = [ "scm", 8 ]
