Create the logical volumes. A linear volume is created when you use `lvcreate` without the `-i` switch. We suggest that you create a striped volume for better I/O performance, and align the stripe sizes to the values documented in [SAP HANA VM storage configurations](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/workloads/sap/hana-vm-operations-storage). The `-i` argument should be the number of the underlying physical volumes and the `-I` argument is the stripe size. In this document, two physical volumes are used for the data volume, so the `-i` switch argument is set to **2**. The stripe size for the data volume is **256KiB**. One physical volume is used for the log volume, so no `-i` or `-I` switches are explicitly used for the log volume commands.
