OPTIONS

21       See lvm for common options.
22
23       --noudevsync
24              Disable  udev  synchronisation.  The  process  will not wait for
25              notification from udev.  It will continue  irrespective  of  any
26              possible udev processing in the background.  You should only use
27              this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices
28              LVM2 creates.

EXAMPLE

31       To rename lvold in volume group vg02 to lvnew:
32
33            lvrename /dev/vg02/lvold /dev/vg02/lvnew
34
35       An alternate syntax to rename this logical volume is
36
37            lvrename vg02 lvold lvnew
