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.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|

destination VG if physical extent sizes are equal and PV and LV summaries
|
|
of both VGs fit into the destination VG's limits.

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.

.SH VARIABLES
|
|
.br
|
|
|

.HP
|
|
\fIVG\fP
|
|
.br
|
|
Volume Group name. See \fBlvm\fP(8) for valid names.
|
|
|
|
.HP
|
|
\fIString\fP
|

|
|
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
|
|
|
|
Merge an inactive VG named "vg00" into the active or inactive VG named
|
|
"databases", giving verbose runtime information.
