50 extends of 8MB each will be close to 400MB.

Which means we do not need to define anything special setting vgcreate to 8M and lvcreate extends to 50 is doing what question asks for.

-- lets say we are going to work on /dev/vda3 , make sure this disk has no mount point,if any than unmount them ex. umount /mnt/data vgcreate -s 8M vg1 /dev/vda3 lvcreate -n lvshare -l 50 vg1 mkfs.ext4 /dev/vg1/lvshare mkdir -p /mnt/data vim /etc/fstab /dev/vg1/lvshare /mnt/data ext4 defaults 0 0 mount -a partprobe df -h
