Notice how "lvs" with no options works fine but with > options doesn't. lvs reports per-lv by default. However, depending on the specified fields, it reports per-segments as if '--segments' are given, for the fields are per-segment info. # lvs LV VG Attr LSize Origin Snap% Move Log Copy% lvol4 mvg -wi-a- 21.88G # lvs --segments LV VG Attr #Str Type SSize lvol4 mvg -wi-a- 1 linear 7.45G lvol4 mvg -wi-a- 1 linear 7.44G lvol4 mvg -wi-a- 1 linear 6.99G In this case, mvg/lvol4 consists of 3 segments. # dmsetup table mvg-lvol4 0 15613952 linear 8:33 8576 15613952 15605760 linear 8:35 16768 31219712 14655488 linear 8:34 164224 With combination of LVM2 2.02.20 or newer and device-mapper 1.02.16 or newer, you can see which field belongs to which category by 'lvs -o help'.
