NAME
       lvscan - scan (all disks) for logical volumes

SYNOPSIS
       lvscan	 [-a|--all]    [-b|--blockdevice]   [-d|--debug]   [-h|--help]
       [--ignorelockingfailure] [-P|--partial] [-v|--verbose]

DESCRIPTION
       lvscan scans all known volume groups or all supported LVM block devices
       in the system for defined logical volumes.

OPTIONS
       See lvm for common options.

       --all  Include information in the output about internal Logical Volumes
	      that are components of normally-accessible Logical Volumes, such
	      as mirrors, but which are not independently accessible (e.g. not
	      mountable).  For example, after creating a mirror using  'lvcre‐
	      ate  -m1 --mirrorlog disk', this option will reveal three inter‐
	      nal Logical Volumes, with suffixes mimage_0, mimage_1, and mlog.

       -b, --blockdevice
	      Adds the device major and minor numbers to the display  of  each
	      logical volume.
