@ -38,6 +38,20 @@ data:: This volume uses LVM-thin, and is used to store VM
images. LVM-thin is preferable for this task, because it offers
efficient support for snapshots and clones.
NOTE: We highly recommend to use a hardware RAID controller (with
BBU) for such setups. This increases performance, provides redundancy,
and make disk replacements easier (hot-pluggable).
Hardware
~~~~~~~~
We highly recommend to use a hardware RAID controller (with BBU) for
such setups. This increases performance, provides redundancy, and make

LVM itself does not need any special hardware, and memory requirements
are very low.
Bootloader
~~~~~~~~~~
We install two boot loaders by default. The first partition contains
the standard GRUB boot loader. The second partition is an **E**FI **S**ystem
**P**artition (ESP), which makes it possible to boot on EFI systems.
