@Hasan,

No, it’s not a typo. (-s 32M) means we are using our own defined physical extend size while creating the volume group instead of default size 4 MB. To get more clarity on this have a look into https://www.tecmint.com/create-lvm-storage-in-linux/.

What a great explanation! Thank you!. There is a typo in the command below. You wrote in the article that you created 15gb here 32 MB.

# vgcreate -s 32M vg_thin /dev/sdb1

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago)

this is the version i am using

@Madhav,

What verion of RHEL 6 you using?

# cat /etc/redhat-release

Thanks & Regards,
Babin Lonston
