NAME
       pvdisplay - display attributes of a physical volume

SYNOPSIS
       pvdisplay   [-c/--colon]	  [-d/--debug]	 [-h/-?/--help]	  [-s/--short]
       [-v[v]/--verbose	   [--verbose]]	   PhysicalVolumePath	 [PhysicalVol‐
       umePath...]

DESCRIPTION
       pvdisplay allows you to see the attributes of one or more physical vol‐
       umes like size, physical extent size, space used for the	 volume	 group
       descriptor area and so on.

       pvs  (8)	 is  an	 alternative that provides the same information in the
       style of ps (1).

OPTIONS
       See lvm for common options.

       -c, --colon
	      Generate colon separated output for easier parsing in scripts or
	      programs.	  N.B. pvs (8) provides considerably more control over
	      the output.

	      The values are:

	      * physical volume device name
	      * volume group name
	      * physical volume size in kilobytes
	      * internal physical volume number (obsolete)
	      * physical volume status
	      * physical volume (not) allocatable
	      * current number of logical volumes on this physical volume
	      * physical extent size in kilobytes
	      * total number of physical extents
	      * free number of physical extents
	      * allocated number of physical extents

       -s, --short
	      Only display the size of the given physical volumes.

       -m, --maps
	      Display the mapping of physical extents to logical  volumes  and
	      logical extents.
