DESCRIPTION

23       pvdisplay allows you to see the attributes of one or more physical vol‐
24       umes  like  size, physical extent size, space used for the volume group
25       descriptor area and so on.
26
27       pvs(8) is an alternative that provides  the  same  information  in  the
28       style of ps(1).

OPTIONS

31       See lvm(8) for common options.
32
33       -C, --columns
34              Display output in columns, the equivalent of pvs(8).  See pvs(8)
35              for a description of other options with this form of pvdisplay.
36
37       -c, --colon
38              Generate colon separated output for easier parsing in scripts or
39              programs.   N.B.  pvs(8) provides considerably more control over
40              the output.
41
42              The values are:
43
44              · physical volume device name
45              · volume group name
46              · physical volume size in sectors
47              · internal physical volume number (obsolete)
48              · physical volume status
49              · physical volume (not) allocatable
50              · current number of logical volumes on this physical volume
51              · physical extent size in kilobytes
52              · total number of physical extents
53              · free number of physical extents
54              · allocated number of physical extents
55
56
57       -s, --short
58              Only display the size of the given physical volumes.
59
60       -m, --maps
61              Display the mapping of physical extents to logical  volumes  and
62              logical extents.
