LPIC-2 Exam 201 (Linux Engineer) — Question 38

Which command is used to make an exact copy, at a single point in time, of a logical volume while still allowing the original logical volume to be updated?

Answer options

• A. lvcclone
• B. lvcreate
• C. lvm2
• D. lvsnap
• E. lvsnapshot

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct choice is B, lvcreate, which is designed to create new logical volumes, including snapshots of existing ones. Options A, D, and E do not accurately describe the command needed to create a copy while allowing updates. Option C, lvm2, is a suite of tools and does not refer to a specific command for cloning a logical volume.
