Two identical SSD disks of 4 TB.
Linux Mint installed on first disk, with 3 partitions being automatically created during fresh installation:
- /dev/sda1 BIOS Boot;
- /dev/sda2 EFI System mounted on /boot/efi;
- /dev/sda3 Linux LVM i.e. LVM2 Physical Volume (LVM2 001).
Second disk /dev/sdb1 Linux LVM i.e. LVM2 Physical Volume (LVM2 001).
Eventually, I merged LVM volume groups, so that all logical volumes are now part of vgmint volume group.
Volumes:
- /dev/vgmint/root --->from disk1
- /dev/vgmint/swap_1 ---> from disk1
- /dev/vgmint/volume ---> from disk2
What I want to do now is to merge /dev/vgmint/volume into /dev/vgmint/root so that /dev/vgmint/root remains only, taking full available space from both disks.
Is this possible and how?
I want /dev/vgmint/volume to dissapear and its space being merged into /dev/vgmint/root.
In other words, I want to completely utilize both physical disks as one disk, I don't want separate mounted folders, but rather extend the Linux system folders over both SSD disks. How to accomplish that?
If this is not possible on existing system, is there a way to do it by fresh linux system install, can it be installed over 2 physical disks?
