Problems with lvm.8: List syntax error. This means .IP, .TP or .RS/.RE markup is garbled. Common causes include .TP just before a section header, .TP entries with tags but no bodies, and mandoc lists with no trailing .El. These confuse doclifter, and may also mess up stricter man-page browsers like Xman and Rosetta. --- lvm.8-unpatched 2016-03-03 08:26:12.286823811 -0500 +++ lvm.8 2016-03-03 08:26:24.274791810 -0500 @@ -42,122 +42,121 @@ .SH BUILT-IN COMMANDS The following commands are built into lvm without links normally being created in the filesystem for them. -.TP +.IP \fBconfig\fP \(em The same as \fBlvmconfig\fP(8) below. -.TP +.IP \fBdevtypes\fP \(em Display the recognised built-in block device types. -.TP +.IP \fBdumpconfig\fP \(em The same as \fBlvmconfig\fP(8) below. -.TP +.IP \fBformats\fP \(em Display recognised metadata formats. -.TP +.IP \fBhelp\fP \(em Display the help text. -.TP +.IP \fBlvpoll\fP \(em Internal command used by lvmpolld to complete some Logical Volume operations. -.TP +.IP \fBpvdata\fP \(em Not implemented in LVM2. -.TP +.IP \fBsegtypes\fP \(em Display recognised Logical Volume segment types. -.TP +.IP \fBsystemid\fP \(em Display the system ID, if any, currently set on this host. -.TP +.IP \fBtags\fP \(em Display any tags defined on this host. -.TP +.IP \fBversion\fP \(em Display version information. .LP .SH COMMANDS The following commands implement the core LVM functionality. -.TP +.IP \fBpvchange\fP \(em Change attributes of a Physical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBpvck\fP \(em Check Physical Volume metadata. -.TP +.IP \fBpvcreate\fP \(em Initialize a disk or partition for use by LVM. -.TP +.IP \fBpvdisplay\fP \(em Display attributes of a Physical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBpvmove\fP \(em Move Physical Extents. -.TP +.IP \fBpvremove\fP \(em Remove a Physical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBpvresize\fP \(em Resize a disk or partition in use by LVM2. -.TP +.IP \fBpvs\fP \(em Report information about Physical Volumes. -.TP +.IP \fBpvscan\fP \(em Scan all disks for Physical Volumes. -.TP +.IP \fBvgcfgbackup\fP \(em Backup Volume Group descriptor area. -.TP +.IP \fBvgcfgrestore\fP \(em Restore Volume Group descriptor area. -.TP +.IP \fBvgchange\fP \(em Change attributes of a Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBvgck\fP \(em Check Volume Group metadata. -.TP +.IP \fBvgconvert\fP \(em Convert Volume Group metadata format. -.TP +.IP \fBvgcreate\fP \(em Create a Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBvgdisplay\fP \(em Display attributes of Volume Groups. -.TP +.IP \fBvgexport\fP \(em Make volume Groups unknown to the system. -.TP +.IP \fBvgextend\fP \(em Add Physical Volumes to a Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBvgimport\fP \(em Make exported Volume Groups known to the system. -.TP +.IP \fBvgimportclone\fP \(em Import and rename duplicated Volume Group (e.g. a hardware snapshot). -.TP +.IP \fBvgmerge\fP \(em Merge two Volume Groups. -.TP +.IP \fBvgmknodes\fP \(em Recreate Volume Group directory and Logical Volume special files -.TP -\fBvgreduce\fP \(em Reduce a Volume Group by removing one or more -Physical Volumes. -.TP +.IP +\fBvgreduce\fP \(em Reduce a Volume Group by removing one or more Physical Volumes. +.IP \fBvgremove\fP \(em Remove a Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBvgrename\fP \(em Rename a Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBvgs\fP \(em Report information about Volume Groups. -.TP +.IP \fBvgscan\fP \(em Scan all disks for Volume Groups and rebuild caches. -.TP +.IP \fBvgsplit\fP \(em Split a Volume Group into two, moving any logical volumes from one Volume Group to another by moving entire Physical Volumes. -.TP +.IP \fBlvchange\fP \(em Change attributes of a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvconvert\fP \(em Convert a Logical Volume from linear to mirror or snapshot. -.TP +.IP \fBlvcreate\fP \(em Create a Logical Volume in an existing Volume Group. -.TP +.IP \fBlvdisplay\fP \(em Display attributes of a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvextend\fP \(em Extend the size of a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvmchange\fP \(em Change attributes of the Logical Volume Manager. -.TP +.IP \fBlvmconfig\fP \(em Display the configuration information after loading \fBlvm.conf\fP(5) and any other configuration files. -.TP +.IP \fBlvmdiskscan\fP \(em Scan for all devices visible to LVM2. -.TP +.IP \fBlvmdump\fP \(em Create lvm2 information dumps for diagnostic purposes. -.TP +.IP \fBlvreduce\fP \(em Reduce the size of a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvremove\fP \(em Remove a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvrename\fP \(em Rename a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvresize\fP \(em Resize a Logical Volume. -.TP +.IP \fBlvs\fP \(em Report information about Logical Volumes. -.TP +.IP \fBlvscan\fP \(em Scan (all disks) for Logical Volumes. -.TP +.IP The following commands are not implemented in LVM2 but might be in the future: lvmsadc, lvmsar, pvdata. .SH OPTIONS The following options are available for many of the commands.
