NAME

       lvmdiskscan - scan for all devices visible to LVM2

SYNOPSIS

       lvmdiskscan     [-d|--debug]     [-h|-?|--help]     [-l|--lvmpartition]
       [-v|--verbose]

DESCRIPTION

       lvmdiskscan scans all SCSI, (E)IDE disks, multiple devices and a  bunch
       of  other block devices in the system looking for LVM physical volumes.
       The size reported  is  the  real  device  size.   Define  a  filter  in
       lvm.conf(5) to restrict the scan to avoid a CD ROM, for example.
