DESCRIPTION

OldLogicalVolume{Name|Path} to NewLogicalVolume{Name|Path}.
OPTIONS
See lvm for common options.
--noudevsync
Disable udev synchronisation. The process will not wait for
notification from udev. It will continue irrespective of any
possible udev processing in the background. You should only use
this if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices
LVM2 creates.
EXAMPLE
To rename lvold in volume group vg02 to lvnew:
lvrename /dev/vg02/lvold /dev/vg02/lvnew
An alternate syntax to rename this logical volume is
lvrename vg02 lvold lvnew
