$ lvcreate -L ${10G} ${vg1}
try on your machine
The command "lvcreate" is used to create a logical volume in Linux.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "lvcreate" is the actual command being executed.
- "-L ${10G}" is an option that specifies the size of the logical volume to be created. In this case, it is set to "${10G}", which means it will create a logical volume of size 10 gigabytes. The "${10G}" syntax is used to substitute the value of the variable "10G" into the command.
- "${vg1}" is another variable being used to specify the name of the volume group in which the logical volume will be created. The actual value of "${vg1}" would be substituted into the command when it is executed.
So, when this command is executed, it will create a logical volume of size 10GB within the volume group named "vg1".
