Zdenek Kabelac 296fcd4c79 man: fix some typos and grammar issues
Drop misplaced letter 'I'.
Missing articles (a, an, the)
Incorrect prepositions (in/into, to/in)
Subject-verb agreement errors.
Awkward phrasing that needs smoothing.
Fixed prepositions ("prior to" instead of "prior the")
Corrected subject-verb agreement ("are becoming" instead of "is becoming")
Fixed word choices ("represents" instead of "presents")
Used consistent terminology ("environment" instead of "environmental")
Fixed pronoun references ("them" instead of "it" when referring to plural subjects)

.SH DESCRIPTION
.
The blkdeactivate utility deactivates block devices. For mounted
block devices, it attempts to unmount them automatically before
trying to deactivate. The utility currently supports
device-mapper devices (DM), including LVM volumes and
software RAID MD devices. LVM volumes are handled directly
using the \fBlvm\fP(8) command, the rest of device-mapper
based devices are handled using the \fBdmsetup\fP(8) command.
MD devices are handled using the \fBmdadm\fP(8) command.

.SH OPTIONS
.
.TP
\fB-d\fP|\fB--dmoptions\fP \fIdm_options\fP
Comma separated list of device-mapper specific options.
.br
Accepted
.BR dmsetup (8)
options are:
.
.RS
.
.TP
.B retry
Retry removal several times in case of failure.
.
.TP
.B force
Force device removal.
.
.RE
.
.TP
.BR -e | --errors
Show errors reported from tools called by \fBblkdeactivate\fP. Without this
option, any error messages from these external tools are suppressed and the
\fBblkdeactivate\fP itself provides only a summary message to indicate
the device was skipped.
.
.TP
.BR -h | --help
Display the help text.
.
.TP
\fB-l\fP|\fB--lvmoptions\fP \fIlvm_options\fP
Comma-separated list of LVM specific options:
.RS
.
.TP
.B retry
Retry removal several times in case of failure.
.
.TP
.B wholevg
Deactivate the whole LVM Volume Group when processing a Logical Volume.
Deactivating the Volume Group as a whole is quicker than deactivating
each Logical Volume separately.
.RE
.
.TP
\fB-r\fP|\fB--mdraidoptions\fP \fImdraid_options\fP
Comma-separated list of MD RAID specific options:
.
.RS
.
.TP
.B wait
Wait for MD device's resync, recovery or reshape action to complete
before deactivation.
.
.RE
.
.TP
\fB-m\fP|\fB--mpathoptions\fP \fImpath_options\fP
Comma-separated list of device-mapper multipath specific options:
.
.RS
.
.TP
.B disablequeueing
Disable queueing on all multipath devices before deactivation.
This avoids a situation where blkdeactivate may end up waiting if
all the paths are unavailable for any underlying device-mapper multipath
device.
.
.RE
.
.TP
.BR -u | --umount
Unmount a mounted device before trying to deactivate it.
Without this option used, a device that is mounted is not deactivated.
.
.TP
\fB-o\fP|\fB--vdooptions\fP \fIvdo_options\fP
Comma-separated list of VDO specific options:
.
.RS
.
.TP
\fBconfigfile\fP=\fIfile\fP
Use specified VDO configuration file.
.
.RE
.
.TP
.BR -v | --verbose
Run in verbose mode. Use \fB-vv\fP for even more verbose mode.
.
.SH EXAMPLES
.
Deactivate all supported block devices found in the system, skipping mounted
devices.
.br
.B blkdeactivate
.P
Deactivate all supported block devices found in the system, unmounting any
mounted devices first, if possible.
.br
.B blkdeactivate -u
.P
Deactivate the device /dev/vg/lvol0 together with all its holders, unmounting
any mounted devices first, if possible.
.br
.na
.B blkdeactivate -u /dev/vg/lvol0
.P
Deactivate all supported block devices found in the system. If the deactivation
of a device-mapper device fails, retry it. Deactivate the whole
Volume Group at once when processing an LVM Logical Volume.
.br
.na
.B blkdeactivate -u -d retry -l wholevg
.P
Deactivate all supported block devices found in the system. If the deactivation
of a device-mapper device fails, retry it and force removal.
.br
.B blkdeactivate -d force,retry
