# Let's learn to administer (manage) our LVM graphically for our '''centos2''' Virtual Machine.
# Launch your '''centos2''' VM and open a shell terminal.
# CentOS provides a tool called '''system-config-lvm''' to graphically administer LVM.# <br><br>'''NOTE:''' This tool may be replaced by a future graphical LVM management tool and is NOT currently available in the default repositories. We will now perform a "work-around" in order to make the system-config-lvm utility work in our system.<br><br>
# Issue the following command to download the system-config-lvm rpm:<br><b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">wget https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/system-config-lvm/1.1.18/1.fc19/noarch/system-config-lvm-1.1.18-1.fc19.noarch.rpm</span></code></b><br>(Although it is an rpm file for the Fedora Distribution, it will also work for Centos7).<br><br>
# Make certain that you are logged in as '''root'''.
