man: Revise internal man page generation process.

For each section 8 man page, a .8_gen file is created from one of:
  .8_main            - Old-style man page - content used directly
  .8_des and .8_end  - Description and end section of a generated page
  .8_pregen	     - Pre-generated page used if the generator fails

Other man sections are not generated and use the suffix .5_main or .7_main.

Developers should use 'make generate' to regenerate the .8_pregen files.

.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--binary\fP
.br
Use binary values "0" or "1" instead of descriptive literal values
for columns that have exactly two valid values to report (not counting
the "unknown" value which denotes that the value could not be determined).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-c\fP|\fB--colon\fP
.br

See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf settings.
The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf,
or may use section/field syntax.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--configreport\fP \fBlog\fP|\fBvg\fP|\fBlv\fP|\fBpv\fP|\fBpvseg\fP|\fBseg\fP
.br
See lvmreport(7).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-d\fP|\fB--debug\fP ...
.br
Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail of
messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--driverloaded\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
For testing and debugging.

.HP
.ad l
\fB-h\fP|\fB--help\fP
.br
Display help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-H\fP|\fB--history\fP
.br
Include historical LVs in the output.
(This has no effect unless LVs were removed while
lvm.conf metadata/record_lvs_history was enabled.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignorelockingfailure\fP
.br
Allows a command to continue with read-only metadata
operations after locking failures.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignoreskippedcluster\fP
.br
Use to avoid exiting with an non-zero status code if the command is run
without clustered locking and clustered VGs are skipped.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--logonly\fP
.br
Suppress command report and display only log report.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--longhelp\fP
.br
Display long help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-m\fP|\fB--maps\fP
.br
Display the mapping of logical extents to PVs and physical extents.
To map physical extents to logical extents use:
pvs --segments -o+lv_name,seg_start_pe,segtype
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--noheadings\fP
.br
Suppress the headings line that is normally the first line of output.
Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nosuffix\fP
.br
Suppress the suffix on output sizes. Use with --units
(except h and H) if processing the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-o\fP|\fB--options\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated, ordered list of fields to display in columns.
String arg syntax is: [+|-|#]Field1[,Field2 ...]
The prefix \fB+\fP will append the specified fields to the default fields,
\fB-\fP will remove the specified fields from the default fields, and
\fB#\fP will compact specified fields (removing them when empty for all rows.)
Use \fB-o help\fP to view the list of all available fields.
The -o option can be repeated, providing several lists.
These lists are evaluated from left to right.
Use field name \fBlv_all\fP to view all LV fields,
\fBvg_all\fP all VG fields,
\fBpv_all\fP all PV fields,
\fBpvseg_all\fP all PV segment fields,
\fBseg_all\fP all LV segment fields, and
\fBpvseg_all\fP all PV segment columns.
See the lvm.conf report section for more config options.
See lvmreport(7) for more information about reporting.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-P\fP|\fB--partial\fP
.br
When set, the tools will do their best to provide access to VGs
that are only partially available (one or more PVs belonging
to the VG are missing from the system). Metadata may not be
changed with this option.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--profile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending
on the command.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-q\fP|\fB--quiet\fP ...
.br
Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--readonly\fP
.br
Run the command in a special read-only mode which will read on-disk
metadata without needing to take any locks. This can be used to peek
inside metadata used by a virtual machine image while the virtual
machine is running.
It can also be used to peek inside the metadata of clustered VGs
when clustered locking is not configured or running. No attempt
will be made to communicate with the device-mapper kernel driver, so
this option is unable to report whether or not LVs are
actually in use.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--segments\fP
.br
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-S\fP|\fB--select\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified criteria.
The criteria syntax is described by \fB--select help\fP and \fBlvmreport\fP(7).
For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.
For non-reporting commands which process LVM entities, the selection is
used to choose items to process.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--separator\fP \fIString\fP
.br
String to use to separate each column. Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--shared\fP
.br
Report/display shared VGs that would otherwise be skipped when
lvmlockd is not being used on the host.
See lvmlockd(8) for more information about shared VGs.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-O\fP|\fB--sort\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated ordered list of columns to sort by. Replaces the default
selection. Precede any column with \fB-\fP for a reverse sort on that column.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--unbuffered\fP
.br
Produce output immediately without sorting or aligning the columns properly.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--units\fP \fBr\fP|\fBR\fP|\fBh\fP|\fBH\fP|\fBb\fP|\fBB\fP|\fBs\fP|\fBS\fP|\fBk\fP|\fBK\fP|\fBm\fP|\fBM\fP|\fBg\fP|\fBG\fP|\fBt\fP|\fBT\fP|\fBp\fP|\fBP\fP|\fBe\fP|\fBE\fP
.br
All sizes are output in these units:
human-(r)eadable with '<' rounding indicator,
(h)uman-readable, (b)ytes, (s)ectors, (k)ilobytes, (m)egabytes,
(g)igabytes, (t)erabytes, (p)etabytes, (e)xabytes.
Capitalise to use multiples of 1000 (S.I.) instead of 1024.
Custom units can be specified, e.g. --units 3M.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-v\fP|\fB--verbose\fP ...
.br
Set verbose level. Repeat from 1 to 4 times to increase the detail
of messages sent to stdout and stderr.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--version\fP
.br
Display version information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-y\fP|\fB--yes\fP
.br
Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume the
answer yes. Use with extreme caution.
(For automatic no, see -qq.)
.ad b
.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fIVG\fP
.br
Volume Group name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
.HP
\fILV\fP
.br

Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)

.SH DESCRIPTION
lvextend extends the size of an LV. This requires allocating logical
extents from the VG's free physical extents. If the extension adds a new
LV segment, the new segment will use the existing segment type of the LV.
Extending a copy\-on\-write snapshot LV adds space for COW blocks.
Use \fBlvconvert\fP(8) to change the number of data images in a RAID or
mirrored LV.
In the usage section below, \fB--size\fP \fISize\fP can be replaced
with \fB--extents\fP \fINumber\fP. See both descriptions
the options section.

.br
.HP
.ad l
\fB--alloc\fP \fBcontiguous\fP|\fBcling\fP|\fBcling_by_tags\fP|\fBnormal\fP|\fBanywhere\fP|\fBinherit\fP
.br
Determines the allocation policy when a command needs to allocate
Physical Extents (PEs) from the VG. Each VG and LV has an allocation policy
which can be changed with vgchange/lvchange, or overriden on the
command line.
\fBnormal\fP applies common sense rules such as not placing parallel stripes
on the same PV.
\fBinherit\fP applies the VG policy to an LV.
\fBcontiguous\fP requires new PEs be placed adjacent to existing PEs.
\fBcling\fP places new PEs on the same PV as existing PEs in the same
stripe of the LV.
If there are sufficient PEs for an allocation, but normal does not
use them, \fBanywhere\fP will use them even if it reduces performance,
e.g. by placing two stripes on the same PV.
Optional positional PV args on the command line can also be used to limit
which PVs the command will use for allocation.
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for more information about allocation.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-A\fP|\fB--autobackup\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a change.
Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--commandprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The command profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf settings.
The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf,
or may use section/field syntax.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-d\fP|\fB--debug\fP ...
.br
Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail of
messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--driverloaded\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
For testing and debugging.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-l\fP|\fB--extents\fP [\fB+\fP]\fINumber\fP[PERCENT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the LV in logical extents.
The --size and --extents options are alternate methods of specifying size.
The total number of physical extents used will be
greater when redundant data is needed for RAID levels.
An alternate syntax allows the size to be determined indirectly
as a percentage of the size of a related VG, LV, or set of PVs. The
suffix \fB%VG\fP denotes the total size of the VG, the suffix \fB%FREE\fP
the remaining free space in the VG, and the suffix \fB%PVS\fP the free
space in the specified PVs. For a snapshot, the size
can be expressed as a percentage of the total size of the origin LV
with the suffix \fB%ORIGIN\fP (\fB100%ORIGIN\fP provides space for
the whole origin).
When expressed as a percentage, the size defines an upper limit for the
number of logical extents in the new LV. The precise number of logical
extents in the new LV is not determined until the command has completed.
When the plus \fB+\fP or minus \fB-\fP prefix is used,
the value is not an absolute size, but is relative and added or subtracted
from the current size.
.ad b

.ad l
\fB-f\fP|\fB--force\fP ...

.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-n\fP|\fB--nofsck\fP
.br
Do not perform fsck before resizing filesystem when filesystem
requires it. You may need to use --force to proceed with
this option.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nosync\fP
.br
Causes the creation of mirror, raid1, raid4, raid5 and raid10 to skip the
initial synchronization. In case of mirror, raid1 and raid10, any data
written afterwards will be mirrored, but the original contents will not be
copied. In case of raid4 and raid5, no parity blocks will be written,
though any data written afterwards will cause parity blocks to be stored.
This is useful for skipping a potentially long and resource intensive initial
sync of an empty mirror/raid1/raid4/raid5 and raid10 LV.
This option is not valid for raid6, because raid6 relies on proper parity
(P and Q Syndromes) being created during initial synchronization in order
to reconstruct proper user date in case of device failures.
raid0 and raid0_meta do not provide any data copies or parity support
and thus do not support initial synchronization.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--noudevsync\fP
.br
Disables udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for notification
from udev. It will continue irrespective of any possible udev processing
in the background. Only use this if udev is not running or has rules that
ignore the devices LVM creates.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--poolmetadatasize\fP [\fB+\fP]\fISize\fP[m|UNIT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the pool metadata LV.
The plus prefix \fB+\fP can be used, in which case
the value is added to the current size.
.ad b

.ad l
\fB--profile\fP \fIString\fP

Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-r\fP|\fB--resizefs\fP
.br
Resize underlying filesystem together with the LV using fsadm(8).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-L\fP|\fB--size\fP [\fB+\fP]\fISize\fP[m|UNIT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the LV.
The --size and --extents options are alternate methods of specifying size.
The total number of physical extents used will be
greater when redundant data is needed for RAID levels.
When the plus \fB+\fP or minus \fB-\fP prefix is used,
the value is not an absolute size, but is relative and added or subtracted
from the current size.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-i\fP|\fB--stripes\fP \fINumber\fP
.br
Specifies the number of stripes in a striped LV. This is the number of
PVs (devices) that a striped LV is spread across. Data that
appears sequential in the LV is spread across multiple devices in units of
the stripe size (see --stripesize). This does not change existing
allocated space, but only applies to space being allocated by the command.
When creating a RAID 4/5/6 LV, this number does not include the extra
devices that are required for parity. The largest number depends on
the RAID type (raid0: 64, raid10: 32, raid4/5: 63, raid6: 62), and
when unspecified, the default depends on the RAID type
(raid0: 2, raid10: 4, raid4/5: 3, raid6: 5.)
To stripe a new raid LV across all PVs by default,
see lvm.conf allocation/raid_stripe_all_devices.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-I\fP|\fB--stripesize\fP \fISize\fP[k|UNIT]
.br
The amount of data that is written to one device before
moving to the next in a striped LV.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b

.ad l
\fB--type\fP \fBlinear\fP|\fBstriped\fP|\fBsnapshot\fP|\fBmirror\fP|\fBraid\fP|\fBthin\fP|\fBcache\fP|\fBthin-pool\fP|\fBcache-pool\fP
.br
The LV type, also known as "segment type" or "segtype".
See usage descriptions for the specific ways to use these types.
For more information about redundancy and performance (\fBraid\fP<N>, \fBmirror\fP, \fBstriped\fP, \fBlinear\fP) see \fBlvmraid\fP(7).
For thin provisioning (\fBthin\fP, \fBthin-pool\fP) see \fBlvmthin\fP(7).
For performance caching (\fBcache\fP, \fBcache-pool\fP) see \fBlvmcache\fP(7).
For copy-on-write snapshots (\fBsnapshot\fP) see usage definitions.
Several commands omit an explicit type option because the type
is inferred from other options or shortcuts
(e.g. --stripes, --mirrors, --snapshot, --virtualsize, --thin, --cache).
Use inferred types with care because it can lead to unexpected results.

.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fILV\fP
.br
Logical Volume name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
An LV positional arg generally includes the VG name and LV name, e.g. VG/LV.
LV followed by _<type> indicates that an LV of the
given type is required. (raid represents raid<N> type)
.HP
\fIPV\fP
.br
Physical Volume name, a device path under /dev.
For commands managing physical extents, a PV positional arg
generally accepts a suffix indicating a range (or multiple ranges)
of physical extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults
to the start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults to end.
Start and end range (inclusive): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB-\fP\fIPE\fP]...
Start and length range (counting from 0): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB+\fP\fIPE\fP]...

\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

.SH DESCRIPTION
lvm fullreport produces formatted output about PVs, PV segments, VGs, LVs
and LV segments. The information is all gathered together for each VG
(under a per-VG lock) so it is consistent. Information gathered from
separate calls to \fBvgs\fP, \fBpvs\fP, and \fBlvs\fP can be inconsistent
if information changes between commands.

.HP
.ad l
\fB-a\fP|\fB--all\fP
.br
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--binary\fP
.br
Use binary values "0" or "1" instead of descriptive literal values
for columns that have exactly two valid values to report (not counting
the "unknown" value which denotes that the value could not be determined).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--commandprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The command profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP

.HP
.ad l
\fB-h\fP|\fB--help\fP
.br
Display help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignorelockingfailure\fP
.br
Allows a command to continue with read-only metadata
operations after locking failures.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignoreskippedcluster\fP
.br
Use to avoid exiting with an non-zero status code if the command is run
without clustered locking and clustered VGs are skipped.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--logonly\fP
.br
Suppress command report and display only log report.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--longhelp\fP
.br
Display long help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nameprefixes\fP
.br
Add an "LVM2_" prefix plus the field name to the output. Useful
with --noheadings to produce a list of field=value pairs that can
be used to set environment variables (for example, in udev rules).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--noheadings\fP
.br
Suppress the headings line that is normally the first line of output.
Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nolocking\fP
.br
Disable locking.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nosuffix\fP
.br
Suppress the suffix on output sizes. Use with --units
(except h and H) if processing the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-o\fP|\fB--options\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated, ordered list of fields to display in columns.
String arg syntax is: [+|-|#]Field1[,Field2 ...]
The prefix \fB+\fP will append the specified fields to the default fields,
\fB-\fP will remove the specified fields from the default fields, and
\fB#\fP will compact specified fields (removing them when empty for all rows.)
Use \fB-o help\fP to view the list of all available fields.
The -o option can be repeated, providing several lists.
These lists are evaluated from left to right.
Use field name \fBlv_all\fP to view all LV fields,
\fBvg_all\fP all VG fields,
\fBpv_all\fP all PV fields,
\fBpvseg_all\fP all PV segment fields,
\fBseg_all\fP all LV segment fields, and
\fBpvseg_all\fP all PV segment columns.
See the lvm.conf report section for more config options.
See lvmreport(7) for more information about reporting.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-P\fP|\fB--partial\fP
.br
When set, the tools will do their best to provide access to VGs
that are only partially available (one or more PVs belonging
to the VG are missing from the system). Metadata may not be
changed with this option.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--profile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending
on the command.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-q\fP|\fB--quiet\fP ...
.br
Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--readonly\fP
.br
Run the command in a special read-only mode which will read on-disk
metadata without needing to take any locks. This can be used to peek
inside metadata used by a virtual machine image while the virtual
machine is running.
It can also be used to peek inside the metadata of clustered VGs
when clustered locking is not configured or running. No attempt
will be made to communicate with the device-mapper kernel driver, so
this option is unable to report whether or not LVs are
actually in use.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--rows\fP
.br
Output columns as rows.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-S\fP|\fB--select\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified criteria.
The criteria syntax is described by \fB--select help\fP and \fBlvmreport\fP(7).
For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.
For non-reporting commands which process LVM entities, the selection is
used to choose items to process.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--separator\fP \fIString\fP
.br
String to use to separate each column. Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--shared\fP
.br
Report/display shared VGs that would otherwise be skipped when
lvmlockd is not being used on the host.
See lvmlockd(8) for more information about shared VGs.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-O\fP|\fB--sort\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated ordered list of columns to sort by. Replaces the default
selection. Precede any column with \fB-\fP for a reverse sort on that column.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--trustcache\fP
.br
Avoids certain device scanning during command processing. Do not use.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--unbuffered\fP
.br
Produce output immediately without sorting or aligning the columns properly.

.br
All sizes are output in these units:
human-(r)eadable with '<' rounding indicator,
(h)uman-readable, (b)ytes, (s)ectors, (k)ilobytes, (m)egabytes,
(g)igabytes, (t)erabytes, (p)etabytes, (e)xabytes.
Capitalise to use multiples of 1000 (S.I.) instead of 1024.
Custom units can be specified, e.g. --units 3M.

.SH OPTIONS
.br
.HP
.ad l
\fB--atversion\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Specify an LVM version in x.y.z format where x is the major version,
the y is the minor version and z is the patchlevel (e.g. 2.2.106).
When configuration is displayed, the configuration settings recognized
at this LVM version will be considered only. This can be used
to display a configuration that a certain LVM version understands and
which does not contain any newer settings for which LVM would
issue a warning message when checking the configuration.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--commandprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The command profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf settings.
The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf,
or may use section/field syntax.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-d\fP|\fB--debug\fP ...
.br
Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail of
messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--driverloaded\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
For testing and debugging.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-f\fP|\fB--file\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Write output to the named file.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-h\fP|\fB--help\fP
.br
Display help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignoreadvanced\fP
.br
Exclude advanced configuration settings from the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignorelocal\fP
.br
Ignore local section.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--ignoreunsupported\fP
.br
Exclude unsupported configuration settings from the output. These settings are
either used for debugging and development purposes only or their support is not
yet complete and they are not meant to be used in production. The \fBcurrent\fP
and \fBdiff\fP types include unsupported settings in their output by default,
all the other types ignore unsupported settings.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-l\fP|\fB--list\fP
.br
List config settings with summarizing comment. This is the same as using
options --typeconfig list --withsummary.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--longhelp\fP
.br
Display long help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--mergedconfig\fP
.br
When the command is run with --config
and/or --commandprofile (or using LVM_COMMAND_PROFILE
environment variable), --profile, or --metadataprofile,
merge all the contents of the "config cascade" before displaying it.
Without merging, only the configuration at the front of the
cascade is displayed.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--metadataprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The metadata profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--profile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending
on the command.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l

.br
Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--showdeprecated\fP
.br
Include deprecated configuration settings in the output. These settings
are deprecated after a certain version. If a concrete version is specified
with --atversion, deprecated settings are automatically included
if the specified version is lower than the version in which the settings were
deprecated. The current and diff types include deprecated settings
in their output by default, all the other types ignore deprecated settings.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--showunsupported\fP
.br
Include unsupported configuration settings in the output. These settings
are either used for debugging or development purposes only, or their support
is not yet complete and they are not meant to be used in production. The
current and diff types include unsupported settings in their
output by default, all the other types ignore unsupported settings.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--sinceversion\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Specify an LVM version in x.y.z format where x is the major version,
the y is the minor version and z is the patchlevel (e.g. 2.2.106).
This option is currently applicable only with --typeconfig new
to display all configuration settings introduced since given version.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.

Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume the
answer yes. Use with extreme caution.
(For automatic no, see -qq.)
.ad b
.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.

inside metadata used by a virtual machine image while the virtual
machine is running.
It can also be used to peek inside the metadata of clustered VGs

.br
[ \fIoption_args\fP ]
.br
.P
.SH DESCRIPTION
lvreduce reduces the size of an LV. The freed logical extents are returned
to the VG to be used by other LVs. A copy\-on\-write snapshot LV can also
be reduced if less space is needed to hold COW blocks. Use
\fBlvconvert\fP(8) to change the number of data images in a RAID or
mirrored LV.
Be careful when reducing an LV's size, because data in the reduced area is
lost. Ensure that any file system on the LV is resized \fBbefore\fP
running lvreduce so that the removed extents are not in use by the file
system.
Sizes will be rounded if necessary. For example, the LV size must be an
exact number of extents, and the size of a striped segment must be a
multiple of the number of stripes.
In the usage section below, \fB--size\fP \fISize\fP can be replaced
with \fB--extents\fP \fINumber\fP. See both descriptions
the options section.

.ad l
\fB-l\fP|\fB--extents\fP [\fB-\fP]\fINumber\fP[PERCENT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the LV in logical extents.
The --size and --extents options are alternate methods of specifying size.
The total number of physical extents used will be
greater when redundant data is needed for RAID levels.
An alternate syntax allows the size to be determined indirectly
as a percentage of the size of a related VG, LV, or set of PVs. The
suffix \fB%VG\fP denotes the total size of the VG, the suffix \fB%FREE\fP
the remaining free space in the VG, and the suffix \fB%PVS\fP the free
space in the specified PVs. For a snapshot, the size
can be expressed as a percentage of the total size of the origin LV
with the suffix \fB%ORIGIN\fP (\fB100%ORIGIN\fP provides space for
the whole origin).
When expressed as a percentage, the size defines an upper limit for the
number of logical extents in the new LV. The precise number of logical
extents in the new LV is not determined until the command has completed.
When the plus \fB+\fP or minus \fB-\fP prefix is used,
the value is not an absolute size, but is relative and added or subtracted
from the current size.

\fBlvremove\fP \fIposition_args\fP
.br
[ \fIoption_args\fP ]
.br
.P
.SH DESCRIPTION
lvremove removes one or more LVs. For standard LVs, this returns the
logical extents that were used by the LV to the VG for use by other LVs.
Confirmation will be requested before deactivating any active LV prior to
removal. LVs cannot be deactivated or removed while they are open (e.g.
if they contain a mounted filesystem). Removing an origin LV will also
remove all dependent snapshots.
When a single force option is used, LVs are removed without confirmation,
and the command will try to deactivate unused LVs.
To remove damaged LVs, two force options may be required (\fB-ff\fP).
\fBHistorical LVs\fP
If the configuration setting \fBmetadata/record_lvs_history\fP is enabled
and the LV being removed forms part of the history of at least one LV that
is still present, then a simplified representation of the LV will be
retained. This includes the time of removal (\fBlv_time_removed\fP
reporting field), creation time (\fBlv_time\fP), name (\fBlv_name\fP), LV
uuid (\fBlv_uuid\fP) and VG name (\fBvg_name\fP). This allows later
reporting to see the ancestry chain of thin snapshot volumes, even after
some intermediate LVs have been removed. The names of such historical LVs
acquire a hyphen as a prefix (e.g. '-lvol1') and cannot be reactivated.
Use lvremove a second time, with the hyphen, to remove the record of the
former LV completely.

\fB-A\fP|\fB--autobackup\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a change.
Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--commandprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The command profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf settings.
The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf,
or may use section/field syntax.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-d\fP|\fB--debug\fP ...

Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail of
messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--driverloaded\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
For testing and debugging.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-f\fP|\fB--force\fP ...
.br
Override various checks, confirmations and protections.
Use with extreme caution.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-h\fP|\fB--help\fP
.br
Display help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--longhelp\fP
.br
Display long help text.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nohistory\fP
.br
Do not record history of LVs being removed.
This has no effect unless the configuration setting
metadata/record_lvs_history is enabled.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--noudevsync\fP
.br
Disables udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for notification
from udev. It will continue irrespective of any possible udev processing
in the background. Only use this if udev is not running or has rules that
ignore the devices LVM creates.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--profile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending
on the command.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-q\fP|\fB--quiet\fP ...
.br
Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-S\fP|\fB--select\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified criteria.
The criteria syntax is described by \fB--select help\fP and \fBlvmreport\fP(7).
For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.
For non-reporting commands which process LVM entities, the selection is
used to choose items to process.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-v\fP|\fB--verbose\fP ...
.br
Set verbose level. Repeat from 1 to 4 times to increase the detail
of messages sent to stdout and stderr.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--version\fP
.br
Display version information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-y\fP|\fB--yes\fP
.br
Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume the
answer yes. Use with extreme caution.
(For automatic no, see -qq.)
.ad b
.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fIVG\fP
.br
Volume Group name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
.HP
\fILV\fP
.br
Logical Volume name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
An LV positional arg generally includes the VG name and LV name, e.g. VG/LV.
.HP
\fITag\fP
.br
Tag name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about tag names and using tags
in place of a VG, LV or PV.
.HP
\fISelect\fP
.br
Select indicates that a required positional parameter can
be omitted if the \fB--select\fP option is used.
No arg appears in this position.
.HP
\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH EXAMPLES
Remove an active LV without asking for confirmation.
.br
.B lvremove \-f vg00/lvol1
Remove all LVs the specified VG.

.ad l
\fB--alloc\fP \fBcontiguous\fP|\fBcling\fP|\fBcling_by_tags\fP|\fBnormal\fP|\fBanywhere\fP|\fBinherit\fP
.br
Determines the allocation policy when a command needs to allocate
Physical Extents (PEs) from the VG. Each VG and LV has an allocation policy
which can be changed with vgchange/lvchange, or overriden on the
command line.
\fBnormal\fP applies common sense rules such as not placing parallel stripes
on the same PV.
\fBinherit\fP applies the VG policy to an LV.
\fBcontiguous\fP requires new PEs be placed adjacent to existing PEs.
\fBcling\fP places new PEs on the same PV as existing PEs in the same
stripe of the LV.
If there are sufficient PEs for an allocation, but normal does not
use them, \fBanywhere\fP will use them even if it reduces performance,
e.g. by placing two stripes on the same PV.
Optional positional PV args on the command line can also be used to limit
which PVs the command will use for allocation.
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for more information about allocation.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-A\fP|\fB--autobackup\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP
.br
Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a change.
Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--commandprofile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
The command profile to use for command configuration.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about profiles.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--config\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf settings.
The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf,
or may use section/field syntax.
See \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) for more information about config.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-d\fP|\fB--debug\fP ...

Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail of
messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--driverloaded\fP \fBy\fP|\fBn\fP

If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
For testing and debugging.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-l\fP|\fB--extents\fP [\fB+\fP|\fB-\fP]\fINumber\fP[PERCENT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the LV in logical extents.
The --size and --extents options are alternate methods of specifying size.
The total number of physical extents used will be
greater when redundant data is needed for RAID levels.
An alternate syntax allows the size to be determined indirectly
as a percentage of the size of a related VG, LV, or set of PVs. The
suffix \fB%VG\fP denotes the total size of the VG, the suffix \fB%FREE\fP
the remaining free space in the VG, and the suffix \fB%PVS\fP the free
space in the specified PVs. For a snapshot, the size
can be expressed as a percentage of the total size of the origin LV
with the suffix \fB%ORIGIN\fP (\fB100%ORIGIN\fP provides space for
the whole origin).
When expressed as a percentage, the size defines an upper limit for the
number of logical extents in the new LV. The precise number of logical
extents in the new LV is not determined until the command has completed.
When the plus \fB+\fP or minus \fB-\fP prefix is used,
the value is not an absolute size, but is relative and added or subtracted
from the current size.

\fB-n\fP|\fB--nofsck\fP
.br
Do not perform fsck before resizing filesystem when filesystem
requires it. You may need to use --force to proceed with
this option.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--nosync\fP
.br
Causes the creation of mirror, raid1, raid4, raid5 and raid10 to skip the
initial synchronization. In case of mirror, raid1 and raid10, any data
written afterwards will be mirrored, but the original contents will not be
copied. In case of raid4 and raid5, no parity blocks will be written,
though any data written afterwards will cause parity blocks to be stored.
This is useful for skipping a potentially long and resource intensive initial
sync of an empty mirror/raid1/raid4/raid5 and raid10 LV.
This option is not valid for raid6, because raid6 relies on proper parity
(P and Q Syndromes) being created during initial synchronization in order
to reconstruct proper user date in case of device failures.
raid0 and raid0_meta do not provide any data copies or parity support
and thus do not support initial synchronization.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--noudevsync\fP
.br
Disables udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for notification
from udev. It will continue irrespective of any possible udev processing
in the background. Only use this if udev is not running or has rules that
ignore the devices LVM creates.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--poolmetadatasize\fP [\fB+\fP]\fISize\fP[m|UNIT]

The plus prefix \fB+\fP can be used, in which case
the value is added to the current size.

\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b

.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-L\fP|\fB--size\fP [\fB+\fP|\fB-\fP]\fISize\fP[m|UNIT]
.br
Specifies the new size of the LV.
The --size and --extents options are alternate methods of specifying size.
The total number of physical extents used will be
greater when redundant data is needed for RAID levels.
When the plus \fB+\fP or minus \fB-\fP prefix is used,
the value is not an absolute size, but is relative and added or subtracted
from the current size.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-i\fP|\fB--stripes\fP \fINumber\fP
.br
Specifies the number of stripes in a striped LV. This is the number of
PVs (devices) that a striped LV is spread across. Data that
appears sequential in the LV is spread across multiple devices in units of
the stripe size (see --stripesize). This does not change existing
allocated space, but only applies to space being allocated by the command.
When creating a RAID 4/5/6 LV, this number does not include the extra
devices that are required for parity. The largest number depends on
the RAID type (raid0: 64, raid10: 32, raid4/5: 63, raid6: 62), and
when unspecified, the default depends on the RAID type
(raid0: 2, raid10: 4, raid4/5: 3, raid6: 5.)
To stripe a new raid LV across all PVs by default,
see lvm.conf allocation/raid_stripe_all_devices.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-I\fP|\fB--stripesize\fP \fISize\fP[k|UNIT]
.br
The amount of data that is written to one device before
moving to the next in a striped LV.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--type\fP \fBlinear\fP|\fBstriped\fP|\fBsnapshot\fP|\fBmirror\fP|\fBraid\fP|\fBthin\fP|\fBcache\fP|\fBthin-pool\fP|\fBcache-pool\fP
.br
The LV type, also known as "segment type" or "segtype".
See usage descriptions for the specific ways to use these types.
For more information about redundancy and performance (\fBraid\fP<N>, \fBmirror\fP, \fBstriped\fP, \fBlinear\fP) see \fBlvmraid\fP(7).
For thin provisioning (\fBthin\fP, \fBthin-pool\fP) see \fBlvmthin\fP(7).
For performance caching (\fBcache\fP, \fBcache-pool\fP) see \fBlvmcache\fP(7).
For copy-on-write snapshots (\fBsnapshot\fP) see usage definitions.
Several commands omit an explicit type option because the type
is inferred from other options or shortcuts
(e.g. --stripes, --mirrors, --snapshot, --virtualsize, --thin, --cache).
Use inferred types with care because it can lead to unexpected results.
.ad b

.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fILV\fP
.br
Logical Volume name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
An LV positional arg generally includes the VG name and LV name, e.g. VG/LV.
LV followed by _<type> indicates that an LV of the
given type is required. (raid represents raid<N> type)
.HP
\fIPV\fP
.br
Physical Volume name, a device path under /dev.
For commands managing physical extents, a PV positional arg
generally accepts a suffix indicating a range (or multiple ranges)
of physical extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults
to the start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults to end.
Start and end range (inclusive): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB-\fP\fIPE\fP]...
Start and length range (counting from 0): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB+\fP\fIPE\fP]...
.HP
\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH EXAMPLES

\fB-o\fP|\fB--options\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated, ordered list of fields to display in columns.
String arg syntax is: [+|-|#]Field1[,Field2 ...]
The prefix \fB+\fP will append the specified fields to the default fields,
\fB-\fP will remove the specified fields from the default fields, and
\fB#\fP will compact specified fields (removing them when empty for all rows.)
Use \fB-o help\fP to view the list of all available fields.
The -o option can be repeated, providing several lists.
These lists are evaluated from left to right.

Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--readonly\fP
.br
Run the command in a special read-only mode which will read on-disk
metadata without needing to take any locks. This can be used to peek
inside metadata used by a virtual machine image while the virtual
machine is running.
It can also be used to peek inside the metadata of clustered VGs
when clustered locking is not configured or running. No attempt
will be made to communicate with the device-mapper kernel driver, so
this option is unable to report whether or not LVs are
actually in use.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.

.ad l
\fB-S\fP|\fB--select\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified criteria.
The criteria syntax is described by \fB--select help\fP and \fBlvmreport\fP(7).
For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.
For non-reporting commands which process LVM entities, the selection is
used to choose items to process.
.ad b

.ad l
\fB--separator\fP \fIString\fP
.br
String to use to separate each column. Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--shared\fP
.br
Report/display shared VGs that would otherwise be skipped when
lvmlockd is not being used on the host.
See lvmlockd(8) for more information about shared VGs.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-O\fP|\fB--sort\fP \fIString\fP

Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.

Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH NOTES
.
The lv_attr bits are:
.IP 1 3
Volume type: (C)ache, (m)irrored, (M)irrored without initial sync, (o)rigin,
(O)rigin with merging snapshot, (r)aid, (R)aid without initial sync,
(s)napshot, merging (S)napshot, (p)vmove, (v)irtual,
mirror or raid (i)mage, mirror or raid (I)mage out-of-sync, mirror (l)og device,
under (c)onversion, thin (V)olume, (t)hin pool, (T)hin pool data, raid or
pool m(e)tadata or pool metadata spare.
.IP 2 3
Permissions: (w)riteable, (r)ead-only, (R)ead-only activation of non-read-only
volume
.IP 3 3
Allocation policy: (a)nywhere, (c)ontiguous, (i)nherited, c(l)ing, (n)ormal
This is capitalised if the volume is currently locked against allocation
changes, for example during
.BR pvmove (8).
.IP 4 3
fixed (m)inor
.IP 5 3
State: (a)ctive, (h)istorical, (s)uspended, (I)nvalid snapshot,
invalid (S)uspended snapshot, snapshot (m)erge failed,
suspended snapshot (M)erge failed, mapped (d)evice present without tables,
mapped device present with (i)nactive table, thin-pool (c)heck needed,
suspended thin-pool (C)heck needed, (X) unknown
.IP 6 3
device (o)pen, (X) unknown
.IP 7 3
Target type: (C)ache, (m)irror, (r)aid, (s)napshot, (t)hin, (u)nknown, (v)irtual.
This groups logical volumes related to the same kernel target together. So,
for example, mirror images, mirror logs as well as mirrors themselves appear as
(m) if they use the original device-mapper mirror kernel driver; whereas the raid
equivalents using the md raid kernel driver all appear as (r).
Snapshots using the original device-mapper driver appear as (s); whereas
snapshots of thin volumes using the new thin provisioning driver appear as (t).
.IP 8 3
Newly-allocated data blocks are overwritten with blocks of (z)eroes before use.
.IP 9 3
Volume Health, where there are currently three groups of attributes identified:
.IP
Common ones for all Logical Volumes: (p)artial, (X) unknown.
.br
(p)artial signifies that one or more of the Physical Volumes this Logical
Volume uses is missing from the system. (X) unknown signifies the status
is unknown.
.IP
Related to RAID Logical Volumes: (r)efresh needed, (m)ismatches exist, (w)ritemostly.
.br
(r)efresh signifies that one or more of the Physical Volumes this RAID Logical
Volume uses had suffered a write error. The write error could be due to a
temporary failure of that Physical Volume or an indication that it is failing.
The device should be refreshed or replaced. (m)ismatches signifies that the
RAID logical volume has portions of the array that are not coherent.
Inconsistencies are detected by initiating a "check" on a RAID logical volume.
(The scrubbing operations, "check" and "repair", can be performed on a RAID
logical volume via the 'lvchange' command.) (w)ritemostly signifies the
devices in a RAID 1 logical volume that have been marked write-mostly.
(R)emove after reshape signifies freed striped raid images to be removed.
.IP
Related to Thin pool Logical Volumes: (F)ailed, out of (D)ata space,
(M)etadata read only.
.br
(F)ailed is set if thin pool encounters serious failures and hence no further I/O
is permitted at all. The out of (D)ata space is set if thin pool has run out of
data space. (M)etadata read only signifies that thin pool encounters certain
types of failures but it's still possible to do reads at least,
but no metadata changes are allowed.
.IP
Related to Thin Logical Volumes: (F)ailed.
.br
(F)ailed is set when related thin pool enters Failed state and no further I/O
is permitted at all.
.IP 10 3
s(k)ip activation: this volume is flagged to be skipped during activation.

For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.

.SH VARIABLES
.br
.HP
\fIPV\fP
.br
Physical Volume name, a device path under /dev.
For commands managing physical extents, a PV positional arg
generally accepts a suffix indicating a range (or multiple ranges)
of physical extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults
to the start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults to end.
Start and end range (inclusive): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB-\fP\fIPE\fP]...
Start and length range (counting from 0): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB+\fP\fIPE\fP]...
.HP
\fISelect\fP
.br
Select indicates that a required positional parameter can
be omitted if the \fB--select\fP option is used.
No arg appears in this position.
.HP
\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH EXAMPLES
Disallow the allocation of physical extents on a PV (e.g. because of
disk errors, or because it will be removed after freeing it).

\fBpvcreate\fP \fIposition_args\fP
.br
[ \fIoption_args\fP ]
.br
.P
.SH DESCRIPTION
pvcreate initializes a PV so that it is recognized as belonging to LVM,
and allows the PV to be used in a VG. A PV can be a disk partition, whole
disk, meta device, or loopback file.
For DOS disk partitions, the partition id should be set to 0x8e using
.BR fdisk (8),
.BR cfdisk (8),
or a equivalent. For GUID Partition Table (GPT), the id is
E6D6D379-F507-44C2-A23C-238F2A3DF928. For
whole disk devices only
the partition table must be erased, which will effectively destroy all
data on that disk. This can be done by zeroing the first sector with:
.BI "dd if=/dev/zero of=" PhysicalVolume " bs=512 count=1"
Use \fBvgcreate\fP(8) to create a new VG on the PV, or \fBvgextend\fP(8)
to add the PV to existing VG.
The force option will create a PV without confirmation. Repeating the
force option (\fB-ff\fP) will forcibly create a PV, overriding checks that
normally prevent it, e.g. if the PV is already in a VG.

.br
Create a separate bootloader area of specified size besides PV's data
area. The bootloader area is an area of reserved space on the PV from
which LVM will not allocate any extents and it's kept untouched. This is
primarily aimed for use with bootloaders to embed their own data or metadata.
The start of the bootloader area is always aligned, see also --dataalignment
and --dataalignmentoffset. The bootloader area size may eventually
end up increased due to the alignment, but it's never less than the
size that is requested. To see the bootloader area start and size of
an existing PV use pvs -o +pv_ba_start,pv_ba_size.

\fB--[pv]metadatacopies\fP \fB0\fP|\fB1\fP|\fB2\fP
.br
The number of metadata areas to set aside on a PV for storing VG metadata.
When 2, one copy of the VG metadata is stored at the front of the PV
and a second copy is stored at the end.
When 1, one copy of the VG metadata is stored at the front of the PV
(starting in the 5th sector).
When 0, no copies of the VG metadata are stored on the given PV.
This may be useful in VGs containing many PVs (this places limitations
on the ability to use vgsplit later.)

.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.

.ad l
\fB--restorefile\fP \fIString\fP
.br
In conjunction with --uuid, this reads the file (produced by
vgcfgbackup), extracts the location and size of the data on the PV,
and ensures that the metadata produced by the program is consistent
with the contents of the file, i.e. the physical extents will be in
the same place and not be overwritten by new metadata. This provides
a mechanism to upgrade the metadata format or to add/remove metadata
areas. Use with care.
.ad b

Overrides the automatically detected size of the PV.
Use with care, or prior to reducing the physical size of the device.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-u\fP|\fB--uuid\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Specify a UUID for the device.
Without this option, a random UUID is generated.
This option is needed before restoring a backup of LVM metadata
onto a replacement device; see vgcfgrestore(8). As such, use of
--restorefile is compulsory unless the --norestorefile is used.
All PVs must have unique UUIDs, and LVM will prevent certain operations
if multiple devices are seen with the same UUID.

\fIPV\fP
.br
Physical Volume name, a device path under /dev.
For commands managing physical extents, a PV positional arg
generally accepts a suffix indicating a range (or multiple ranges)
of physical extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults
to the start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults to end.
Start and end range (inclusive): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB-\fP\fIPE\fP]...
Start and length range (counting from 0): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB+\fP\fIPE\fP]...

\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH EXAMPLES
Initialize a partition and a full device.
.br
.B pvcreate /dev/sdc4 /dev/sde
If a device is a 4KiB sector drive that compensates for windows
partitioning (sector 7 is the lowest aligned logical block, the 4KiB
sectors start at LBA -1, and consequently sector 63 is aligned on a 4KiB
boundary) manually account for this when initializing for use by LVM.

Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --verbose.
Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer no.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--readonly\fP
.br
Run the command in a special read-only mode which will read on-disk
metadata without needing to take any locks. This can be used to peek
inside metadata used by a virtual machine image while the virtual
machine is running.
It can also be used to peek inside the metadata of clustered VGs
when clustered locking is not configured or running. No attempt
will be made to communicate with the device-mapper kernel driver, so
this option is unable to report whether or not LVs are
actually in use.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--reportformat\fP \fBbasic\fP|\fBjson\fP
.br
Overrides current output format for reports which is defined globally by
the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.
\fBbasic\fP is the original format with columns and rows.
If there is more than one report per command, each report is prefixed
with the report name for identification. \fBjson\fP produces report
output in JSON format. See \fBlvmreport\fP(7) for more information.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-S\fP|\fB--select\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified criteria.
The criteria syntax is described by \fB--select help\fP and \fBlvmreport\fP(7).
For reporting commands, one row is displayed for each object matching the criteria.
See \fB--options help\fP for selectable object fields.
Rows can be displayed with an additional "selected" field (-o selected)
showing 1 if the row matches the selection and 0 otherwise.
For non-reporting commands which process LVM entities, the selection is
used to choose items to process.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--separator\fP \fIString\fP
.br
String to use to separate each column. Useful if grepping the output.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB--shared\fP
.br
Report/display shared VGs that would otherwise be skipped when
lvmlockd is not being used on the host.
See lvmlockd(8) for more information about shared VGs.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-s\fP|\fB--short\fP
.br
Only display the size of the given PVs.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-O\fP|\fB--sort\fP \fIString\fP
.br
Comma-separated ordered list of columns to sort by. Replaces the default
selection. Precede any column with \fB-\fP for a reverse sort on that column.
.ad b
.HP
.ad l
\fB-t\fP|\fB--test\fP
.br
Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.
This is implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
returning success to the calling function. This may lead to unusual
error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool relies on reading
back metadata it believes has changed but hasn't.
.ad b

.SH DESCRIPTION
pvmove moves the allocated physical extents (PEs) on a source PV to one or
more destination PVs. You can optionally specify a source LV in which
case only extents used by that LV will be moved to free (or specified)
extents on the destination PV. If no destination PV is specified, the
normal allocation rules for the VG are used.
If pvmove is interrupted for any reason (e.g. the machine crashes) then
run pvmove again without any PV arguments to restart any operations that
were in progress from the last checkpoint. Alternatively, use the abort
option at any time to abort the operation. The resulting location of LVs
after an abort depends on whether the atomic option was used.
More than one pvmove can run concurrently if they are moving data from
different source PVs, but additional pvmoves will ignore any LVs already
in the process of being changed, so some data might not get moved.

\fB--abort\fP
.br
Abort any pvmove operations in progress. If a pvmove was started
with the --atomic option, then all LVs will remain on the source PV.
Otherwise, segments that have been moved will remain on the
destination PV, while unmoved segments will remain on the source PV.
.ad b

\fB--alloc\fP \fBcontiguous\fP|\fBcling\fP|\fBcling_by_tags\fP|\fBnormal\fP|\fBanywhere\fP|\fBinherit\fP
.br
Determines the allocation policy when a command needs to allocate
Physical Extents (PEs) from the VG. Each VG and LV has an allocation policy
which can be changed with vgchange/lvchange, or overriden on the
command line.
\fBnormal\fP applies common sense rules such as not placing parallel stripes

\fBinherit\fP applies the VG policy to an LV.
\fBcontiguous\fP requires new PEs be placed adjacent to existing PEs.
\fBcling\fP places new PEs on the same PV as existing PEs in the same
stripe of the LV.
If there are sufficient PEs for an allocation, but normal does not
use them, \fBanywhere\fP will use them even if it reduces performance,
e.g. by placing two stripes on the same PV.
Optional positional PV args on the command line can also be used to limit
which PVs the command will use for allocation.
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for more information about allocation.

\fIPV\fP
.br
Physical Volume name, a device path under /dev.
For commands managing physical extents, a PV positional arg
generally accepts a suffix indicating a range (or multiple ranges)
of physical extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults
to the start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults to end.
Start and end range (inclusive): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB-\fP\fIPE\fP]...
Start and length range (counting from 0): \fIPV\fP[\fB:\fP\fIPE\fP\fB+\fP\fIPE\fP]...
.HP
\fIString\fP
.br
See the option description for information about the string content.
.HP
\fISize\fP[UNIT]
.br
Size is an input number that accepts an optional unit.
Input units are always treated as base two values, regardless of
capitalization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to 1024.
The default input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.
UNIT represents other possible input units: \fBbBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE\fP.
b|B is bytes, s|S is sectors of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes,
m|M is megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes,
p|P is petabytes, e|E is exabytes.
(This should not be confused with the output control --units, where
capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.br
See \fBlvm\fP(8) for information about environment variables used by lvm.
For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG parameter.
.SH NOTES
pvmove works as follows:
1. A temporary 'pvmove' LV is created to store details of all the data
movements required.
2. Every LV in the VG is searched for contiguous data that need moving
according to the command line arguments.
For each piece of data found, a new segment is added to the end of the
pvmove LV.
This segment takes the form of a temporary mirror to copy the data
from the original location to a newly allocated location.
The original LV is updated to use the new temporary mirror segment
in the pvmove LV instead of accessing the data directly.
3. The VG metadata is updated on disk.
4. The first segment of the pvmove LV is activated and starts to mirror
the first part of the data. Only one segment is mirrored at once as this
is usually more efficient.
5. A daemon repeatedly checks progress at the specified time interval.
When it detects that the first temporary mirror is in sync, it breaks that
mirror so that only the new location for that data gets used and writes a
checkpoint into the VG metadata on disk. Then it activates the mirror for
the next segment of the pvmove LV.
6. When there are no more segments left to be mirrored, the temporary LV
is removed and the VG metadata is updated so that the LVs reflect the new
data locations.
Note that this new process cannot support the original LVM1
type of on-disk metadata. Metadata can be converted using
\fBvgconvert\fP(8).
If the \fB\-\-atomic\fP option is used, a slightly different approach is
used for the move. Again, a temporary 'pvmove' LV is created to store the
details of all the data movements required. This temporary LV contains
all the segments of the various LVs that need to be moved. However, in
this case, an identical LV is allocated that contains the same number of
segments and a mirror is created to copy the contents from the first
temporary LV to the second. After a complete copy is made, the temporary
LVs are removed, leaving behind the segments on the destination PV. If an
abort is issued during the move, all LVs being moved will remain on the
source PV.
.SH EXAMPLES
Move all physical extents that are used by simple LVs on the specified PV to
free physical extents elsewhere in the VG.
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1
Use a specific destination PV when moving physical extents.
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
Move extents belonging to a single LV.
.br
.B pvmove \-n lvol1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
Rather than moving the contents of an entire device, it is possible to
move a range of physical extents, for example numbers 1000 to 1999
inclusive on the specified PV.
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1:1000\-1999
A range of physical extents to move can be specified as start+length. For
example, starting from PE 1000. (Counting starts from 0, so this refers to the
1001st to the 2000th PE inclusive.)
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1:1000+1000
Move a range of physical extents to a specific PV (which must have
sufficient free extents).
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1:1000\-1999 /dev/sdc1
Move a range of physical extents to specific new extents on a new PV.
.br
.B pvmove /dev/sdb1:1000\-1999 /dev/sdc1:0\-999
If the source and destination are on the same disk, the
\fBanywhere\fP allocation policy is needed.
.br
.B pvmove \-\-alloc anywhere /dev/sdb1:1000\-1999 /dev/sdb1:0\-999
The part of a specific LV present within in a range of physical
extents can also be picked out and moved.

.B pvmove \-n lvol1 /dev/sdb1:1000\-1999 /dev/sdc1

.SH DESCRIPTION
pvremove wipes the label on a device so that LVM will no longer recognise
it as a PV.
A PV cannot be removed from a VG while it is used by an active LV.
Repeat the force option (\fB-ff\fP) to forcibly remove a PV belonging to
an existing VG. Normally, \fBvgreduce\fP(8) should be used instead.
