lvscan − scan (all disks) for logical volumes
lvscan [−a|−−all] [−b|−−blockdevice] [−d|−−debug] [−h|−−help] [−−ignorelockingfailure] [−P|−−partial] [−v|−−verbose]
lvscan scans all known volume groups or all supported LVM block devices in the system for defined logical volumes.
See lvm for common options.
−−all |
Include information in the output about internal Logical Volumes that are components of normally-accessible Logical Volumes, such as mirrors, but which are not independently accessible (e.g. not mountable). For example, after creating a mirror using ’lvcreate -m1 --mirrorlog disk’, this option will reveal three internal Logical Volumes, with suffixes mimage_0, mimage_1, and mlog. |
−b, −−blockdevice
Adds the device major and minor numbers to the display of each logical volume.
