== Limitations
41+
42+
For deploying {sno}, LVM Storage has the following limitations:
43+
44+
* The total storage size is limited by the size of the underlying Logical Volume Manager (LVM) thin pool and the overprovisioning factor.
45+
* The size of the logical volume depends on the size of the Physical Extent (PE) and the Logical Extent (LE).
46+
** It is possible to define the size of PE and LE during the physical and logical device creation.
47+
** The default PE and LE size is 4 MB.
48+
** If the size of the PE is increased, the maximum size of the LVM is determined by the kernel limits and your disk space.
