NAME

lvdisplay − display attributes of a logical volume

SYNOPSIS

lvdisplay [−c|−−colon] [−d|−−debug] [−D|−−disk] [−h|−−help] [−v[v]|−−verbose] LogicalVolumePath [LogicalVolumePath...]

DESCRIPTION

lvdisplay allows you to see the attributes of a logical volume like size, read/write status, snapshot information etc.

OPTIONS
−c, −−colon

Generate colon seperated output for easier parsing in scripts or programs.

The values are:

* logical volume name
* volume group name
* logical volume access
* logical volume status
* internal logical volume number
* open count of logical volume
* logical volume size in kilobytes
* current logical extents associated to logical volume
* allocated logical extents of logical volume
* allocation policy of logical volume
* read ahead sectors of logical volume
* major device number of logical volume
* minor device number of logical volume

−d, −−debug

Enables additional debugging output (if compiled with DEBUG).

−D, −−disk

Show attributes of the volume group descriptor array on disk(s). Without this switch they are derived from kernel space. Useful, if the volume group isn’t active.

-h, −−help

Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully.

−v, −−verbose

Display the mapping of logical extents to physical volumes and physical extents.

−vv, −−verbose −−verbose

Like −v with verbose runtime information.

Examples

"lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol2" shows attributes of that logical volume and its mapping of logical to physical extents. In case snapshot logical volumes have been created for this original logical volume, this command shows a list of all snapshot logical volumes and their status (active or inactive) as well.

"lvdisplay /dev/vg00/snapshot" shows the attributes of this snapshot logical volume and also which original logical volume it is associated with.

DIAGNOSTICS

lvdisplay returns an exit code of 0 for success or > 0 for error:

1 no logical volume name(s) on command line

95 driver/module not in kernel
96 invalid I/O protocol version
97 error locking logical volume manager
98 invalid lvmtab (run vgscan(8))
99 invalid command line

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

LVM_VG_NAME

The default Volume Group Name to use. Setting this variable enables you to enter just the Logical Volume Name rather than its complete path.
