[lug] help needed with LVM situation

[thad]

Thats why I name my 1st volume group as rootvg, each logical volume in
a more human readable like rootlv for /, swaplv for /swap, usrlv for
/usr, homelv for for /home. If I need to add other vg for database
then it could be xxxxvg, where xxxx is something to describe the
database.
