DESCRIPTION

22       vgdisplay  allows  you to see the attributes of VolumeGroupName (or all
23       volume groups if none is given) with it's physical and logical  volumes
24       and their sizes etc.
25
26       vgs  (8)  is  an  alternative that provides the same information in the
27       style of ps (1).

OPTIONS

33              Only select the active volume groups.
34
35       -c, --colon
36              Generate colon separated output for easier parsing in scripts or

41
42              1  volume group name
43              2  volume group access
44              3  volume group status
45              4  internal volume group number
46              5  maximum number of logical volumes

54              13 physical extent size
55              14 total number of physical extents for this volume group
56              15 allocated number of physical extents for this volume group
57              16 free number of physical extents for this volume group
