CentOS 8 LVM (CentOS 8) on AWS EC2

This is a minimal ready to use ProComputers packaged CentOS 8 LVM (CentOS 8) image, mainly used as a common base system on top of which other appliances could be built and tested.

LVM, or Logical Volume Manager, is a storage management technology that adds a flexible layer between physical disks and the file systems that use them. Compared to standard disk partitioning, it makes it much easier to resize storage, allocate space dynamically, organize volumes across one or more disks, and adapt the system to changing storage needs over time. This gives users more control and simplifies storage administration, especially in environments where scalability and easier disk management are important.
