NAME
       lvmadm - display limits associated with a volume group version

SYNOPSIS
       vg_vers]

DESCRIPTION
       The command is used to perform the actions below:

       ·  Display the limits associated with a volume group version.

       ·  Display the LVM configuration that is contained in and files for the
	  indicated volume group version.

       ·  Update the entries of the bootable volume group and the boot	infor‐
	  mation present in the boot disk either during or after boot.

	  With	the  boot disk's physical location changing prior to reboot or
	  when the system is booted with a cloned disk,	 the  entries  of  the
	  bootable  volume  group and the boot information present in the boot
	  disk may be out of sync with the kernel. In such a  situation,  fol‐
	  lowing  root	volume	group  activation  (either during boot or post
	  boot) use the command in migrate mode option) to update the informa‐
	  tion	present	 in  the  file and the boot information present in the
	  boot disk with the kernel.  See lvm(7) for more details.

       Max PV Size (Tbytes)	The  maximum size of a physical volume in ter‐
				abytes.

       Max VGs			The maximum number of volume groups this  vol‐
				ume group version supports on a system.

       Max LVs			The  maximum  number  of  logical volumes in a
