NAME
       pvchange - change attributes of a physical volume

SYNOPSIS
       pvchange [--addtag Tag] [-A|--autobackup y|n] [-d|--debug] [-f|--force]
       [--deltag  Tag]	[--metadataignore  y|n]	  [-h|-?|--help]   [-t|--test]
       [-v|--verbose]  [-a|--all]  [-x|--allocatable  y|n] [-u|--uuid] [Physi‐
       calVolumePath...]

DESCRIPTION
       pvchange allows you to change the allocation permissions of one or more
       physical volumes.

OPTIONS
       See lvm for common options.

       -a, --all
	      If  PhysicalVolumePath  is not specified on the command line all
	      physical volumes are searched for and used.

       --metadataignore	 y|n
	      Ignore or un-ignore metadata areas on this physical volume.   If
	      metadata	areas  on  a physical volume are ignored, LVM will not
	      not store metadata in the metadata areas present on this	Physi‐
	      cal Volume.

       -u, --uuid
	      Generate new random UUID for specified physical volumes.

       -x, --allocatable y|n
	      Enable  or disable allocation of physical extents on this physi‐
	      cal volume.

Example
       "pvchange -x n /dev/sdk1" disallows the allocation of physical  extents
       on this physical volume (possibly because of disk errors, or because it
       will be removed after freeing it.
