OPTIONS
       --addtag Tag
              Adds a tag to a PV, VG or LV. This option can be repeated to add
              multiple tags at once. See lvm(8) for information about tags.
       -a|--all
              Change all visible PVs.
       -x|--allocatable y|n
              Enable or disable allocation of physical extents on this PV.
       -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).
       --deltag Tag
              Deletes a tag from a PV, VG or LV. This option can be repeated
              to delete multiple tags at once. See lvm(8) for information
              about tags.
       --driverloaded y|n
              If set to no, the command will not attempt to use device-mapper.
              For testing and debugging.
       -f|--force ...
              Override various checks, confirmations and protections.  Use
              with extreme caution.
       -h|--help
              Display help text.
       --ignoreskippedcluster
              Use to avoid exiting with an non-zero status code if the command
              is run without clustered locking and clustered VGs are skipped.
       --lockopt String
              Used to pass options for special cases to lvmlockd.  See lvm-
              lockd(8) for more information.
       --longhelp
              Display long help text.
       --metadataignore y|n
              Specifies the metadataignore property of a PV.  If yes, metadata
              areas on the PV are ignored, and lvm will not store metadata in
              the metadata areas of the PV.  If no, lvm will store metadata on
              the PV.
       --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.
       -S|--select String
              Select objects for processing and reporting based on specified
              criteria.  The criteria syntax is described by --select help and
              lvmreport(7).  For reporting commands, one row is displayed for
              each object matching the criteria.  See --options help for
              selectable object fields.  Rows can be displayed with an addi-
              tional "selected" field (-o selected) showing 1 if the row
              matches the selection and 0 otherwise.  For non-reporting com-
              mands which process LVM entities, the selection is used to
              choose items to process.
       -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.
       -u|--uuid
              Generate new random UUID for specified PVs.
       -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
       PV
              Physical  Volume  name,  a device path under /dev.  For commands
              managing physical extents, a PV positional arg generally accepts
              a  suffix  indicating  a  range (or multiple ranges) of physical
              extents (PEs). When the first PE is omitted, it defaults to  the
              start of the device, and when the last PE is omitted it defaults
              to end.  Start and end range (inclusive):  PV[:PE-PE]...   Start
              and length range (counting from 0): PV[:PE+PE]...
       Select
              Select  indicates  that  a  required positional parameter can be
              omitted if the --select option is used.  No arg appears in  this
              position.
       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
       Disallow the allocation of physical extents on a PV  (e.g.  because  of
       disk errors, or because it will be removed after freeing it).
