I think I will use wonderful LVM GUI again, and > I will not allow anyone to tell me how DE/GUI on a server is bad thing.;) There are lots of rumors regarding the existence of a GUI. Sometimes it's a bit weird to use very low level tools when you have tools that will give you much more power in your hands. But again some prefer to know what they do in the lowest levels and others just want to do the thing while they know it works and was designed to work. When the two collide ( works vs power) lots prefer to have only works (what seems to be a very bad assumption). Many times you don't need GUI for servers to operate and sometimes the existence of a GUI slow the server down and lowering the performance of the system. So taking couple things into account most admins agree that a GUI should not be needed when you know how to operate the machine using the CLI tools. If you feel the need to use GUI tools have it your way and have a nice smile to your CLI friends which struggle every once in a while how to do things in a way they prefer and note that not all admins are alike. (I am still looking for a GUI utils to operate GlusterFS which seems to be there in RH storage systems) Regards, Eliezer
