Advanced Disk Setup
Sophisticated system congurations require specic disk setups. All common partitioning
tasks can be done with YaST. To get persistent device naming with block devices, use
the block devices below /dev/disk/by-id or /dev/disk/by-uuid. Logical
Volume Management (LVM) is a disk partitioning scheme that is designed to be much
more exible than the physical partitioning used in standard setups. Its snapshot func-
tionality enables easy creation of data backups. Redundant Array of Independent Disks
(RAID) offers increased data integrity, performance, and fault tolerance. openSUSE
also supports multipath I/O , and there is also the option to use iSCSI as a networked
disk.
3.1 Using the YaST Partitioner
With the expert partitioner, shown in Figure 3.1, “The YaST Partitioner” (page 74),
manually modify the partitioning of one or several hard disks. You can add, delete, re-
size, and edit partitions, as well as access the soft RAID, and LVM conguration.
WARNING: Repartitioning the Running System
Although it is possible to repartition your system while it is running, the risk
of making a mistake that causes the data loss is very high. Try to avoid reparti-
tioning your installed system and always do a complete backup of your data
before attempting to do so.
