DESCRIPTION
pvdisplay allows you to see the attributes of one or more physical vol-
umes like size, physical extent size, space used for the volume group
descriptor area and so on.
pvs(8) is an alternative that provides the same information in the
style of ps(1).
OPTIONS
See lvm for common options and pvs for options given with --columns.
-c, --colon
Generate colon separated output for easier parsing in scripts or
programs. N.B. pvs(8) provides considerably more control over
the output.
The values are:
* physical volume device name
* volume group name
* physical volume size in sectors
* internal physical volume number (obsolete)
* physical volume status
* physical volume (not) allocatable
* current number of logical volumes on this physical volume
* physical extent size in kilobytes
* total number of physical extents
* free number of physical extents
* allocated number of physical extents
-s, --short
Only display the size of the given physical volumes.
-m, --maps
Display the mapping of physical extents to logical volumes and
logical extents.
--columns, -C
Display output in columns, the equivalent of pvs(8). See pvs(8)
for a description of other options with this form of pvdisplay.
