On a Red Hat 7 distribution, the yum list installed command can be used to determine if LVM is installed.
yum list installed | grep -i lvm
On a Red Hat 8 distribution, the dnf list installed command can be used.
dnf list installed | grep -i lvm
If LVM is already installed, something like this should be returned.

lvm2.x86_64 2.03.11-1.fc34 @anaconda
lvm2-libs.x86_64 2.03.11-1.fc34 @anaconda
udisks2-lvm2.x86_64 2.9.2-2.fc34 @anaconda
If LVM is not installed, the yum install or dnf install command can be used to install LVM.
dnf install lvm2
