           [ -A|--autobackup y|n ]
           [    --noudevsync ]
           [    --reportformat basic|json ]
       Common options for lvm:
           [ -d|--debug ]
           [ -h|--help ]
           [ -q|--quiet ]
           [ -t|--test ]

           [    --config String ]
           [    --driverloaded y|n ]
           [    --lockopt String ]
           [    --longhelp ]
           [    --profile String ]
           [    --version ]
OPTIONS
       -A|--autobackup y|n
              Specifies if metadata should be backed up automatically after a
              change.  Enabling this is strongly advised! See vgcfgbackup(8)
              for more information.
       --commandprofile String
              The command profile to use for command configuration.  See
              lvm.conf(5) for more information about profiles.
       --config String
              Config settings for the command. These override lvm.conf set-
              tings.  The String arg uses the same format as lvm.conf, or may
              use section/field syntax.  See lvm.conf(5) for more information
              about config.
       -d|--debug ...
              Set debug level. Repeat from 1 to 6 times to increase the detail
              of messages sent to the log file and/or syslog (if configured).
       --driverloaded y|n
              If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
              For testing and debugging.
       -h|--help
              Display help text.
       --lockopt String
              Used to pass options for special cases to lvmlockd.  See lvm-
              lockd(8) for more information.
       --longhelp
              Display long help text.
       --noudevsync
              Disables udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for
              notification from udev. It will continue irrespective of any
              possible udev processing in the background. Only use this if
              udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices LVM
              creates.
       --profile String
              An alias for --commandprofile or --metadataprofile, depending on
              the command.
       -q|--quiet ...
              Suppress output and log messages. Overrides --debug and --ver-
              bose.  Repeat once to also suppress any prompts with answer
              'no'.
       --reportformat basic|json
              Overrides current output format for reports which is defined
              globally by the report/output_format setting in lvm.conf.  basic
              is the original format with columns and rows.  If there is more
              than one report per command, each report is prefixed with the
              report name for identification. json produces report output in
              JSON format. See lvmreport(7) for more information.
       -t|--test
              Run in test mode. Commands will not update metadata.  This is
              implemented by disabling all metadata writing but nevertheless
              returning success to the calling function. This may lead to
              unusual error messages in multi-stage operations if a tool
              relies on reading back metadata it believes has changed but
              hasn't.
       -v|--verbose ...
              Set verbose level. Repeat from 1 to 4 times to increase the
              detail of messages sent to stdout and stderr.
       --version
              Display version information.
       -y|--yes
              Do not prompt for confirmation interactively but always assume
              the answer yes. Use with extreme caution.  (For automatic no,
              see -qq.)
VARIABLES
       VG
              Volume Group name.  See lvm(8) for valid names.
       LV
              Logical  Volume  name.  See lvm(8) for valid names.  An LV posi-
              tional arg generally includes the VG  name  and  LV  name,  e.g.
              VG/LV.
       String
              See the option description for information about the string con-
              tent.
       Size[UNIT]
              Size is an input number that accepts an  optional  unit.   Input
              units are always treated as base two values, regardless of capi-
              talization, e.g. 'k' and 'K' both refer to  1024.   The  default
              input unit is specified by letter, followed by |UNIT.  UNIT rep-
              resents other possible input units:  bBsSkKmMgGtTpPeE.   b|B  is
              bytes,  s|S  is  sectors  of 512 bytes, k|K is kilobytes, m|M is
              megabytes, g|G is gigabytes, t|T is terabytes, p|P is petabytes,
              e|E  is  exabytes.  (This should not be confused with the output
              control --units, where capital letters mean multiple of 1000.)
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       See lvm(8) for information about environment  variables  used  by  lvm.
       For example, LVM_VG_NAME can generally be substituted for a required VG
       parameter.
EXAMPLES
       Rename "lvold" to "lvnew":
       lvrename /dev/vg02/lvold vg02/lvnew
       An alternate syntax to rename "lvold" to "lvnew":
       lvrename vg02 lvold lvnew
