NAME
       lvmpvg - LVM physical volume group information file

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       is  an  ASCII  file that stores the volume-group information for all of
       the physical volume groups in the system.  The information is stored in
       a hierarchical format.

       First, it starts with a volume group under which multiple physical vol‐
       ume groups can exist.  Under each physical  volume  group,  a  list  of
       physical volumes can be specified.  There must be at least one physical
       volume group in each volume group that appears in this file.  The phys‐
       ical-volume-group  name	must be unique within the corresponding volume
       group, although it is permissible to use a common physical volume group
       name  across  different	volume	groups.	  There	 can be as many volume
       groups in this file as there are in the system.

       Instead of using the and commands, the administrator can edit this file
       to  create  and	extend	physical volume groups.	 However, care must be
       taken to ensure that all physical volumes to be included	 in  the  file
       have already been defined in their respective volume groups by previous
       use of or

       The file format has the following structure.   and  are	keywords  that
       introduce  the  names  of  the  volume group and physical volume group,
       respectively.

	      pv_path
		 ...
	      pv_path
		 ...
	      pv_path
		 ...

       The variables are defined as follows:

	      pv_path	     The block device path name of a  physical	volume
			     within the volume group.

	      pvg_name	     The  name	of the physical volume group.  It must
			     be unique within the volume group.

	      vg_name	     The path name of the volume group.

EXAMPLES
       The following example shows an file containing two volume  groups:  the
       first  containing  two  physical	 volume groups, each with two physical
       volumes defined in it; the  second  containing  three  physical	volume
       groups, each with one physical volume defined in it.
