Displaying Physical Volumes
There are three commands you can use to display properties of LVM physical volumes: pvs,pvdisplay, and pvscan.
The pvs command provides physical volume information in a configurable form, displaying one line per physical volume. The pvs command provides a great deal of format control, and is useful for scripting.
The pvdisplay command provides a verbose multi-line output for each physical volume. It displays physical properties (size, extents, volume group, etc.) in a fixed format.
The following example shows the output of the pvdisplay command for a single physical volume.
# pvdisplay
