Given that resizing a volume, without a commensurate upgrade to the storage hardware, should be an exceptional event, and given that LVM configurations are vastly more problematic to debug when problems occur, I recommend avoiding LVM, with one very significant exception. The snapshotting capability in LVM is fabulous. If you need to snapshot a large filesystem, especially for backing up, by all means use LVM, carefully.
