NAME

       vgmknodes  - recreate volume group directory and logical volume special
       files

SYNOPSIS

       vgmknodes   [-d|--debug]   [-h|--help]    [--refresh]    [-v|--verbose]
       [[VolumeGroupName | LogicalVolumePath]...]

DESCRIPTION

       Checks  the  LVM2  special  files  in  /dev  that are needed for active
       logical volumes and creates any missing ones and removes unused ones.

OPTIONS

       --refresh
              If any logical volume in the volume group is active, reload  its
              metadata.  This is not necessary in normal operation, but may be
              useful if something has gone wrong or if you’re doing clustering
              manually without a clustered lock manager.

       See lvm for common options.
