Issue about PP size

Hello everyone,

I have many VGs on my system. I have created them whith the same command. I haven't specified the PP size while creating them. Logically, the PP size should be the same (default value) in all the VGs. However, I have different PP size : 32 MB, 256 MB, 64 MB and 128 MB.

Can anyone explain why I haven't the same PP size ? what's the PP size default value ?

What's the utility of having small PP size rather than big PP size ?

Thank you

newfs_v7fs builds a 7th Edition(V7) file system on the specified special. If it is a device, the size information will be taken from the disk label and before running newfs_v7fs the disk must be labeled using disklabel(8); the proper fstype is ``Version 7''.

The following arguments are supported: -B byte-order Specify the metadata byte order of the file system to be created. Valid byte orders are 'be', 'le', and 'pdp'. If no byte order is specified, the file system is created in host byte order. -F Create file system to a regular file (needs the -s option). -n inodes This specifies the number of inodes for the filesystem. If the number of inodes exceeds 65536, it is reduced to 65536. -s sectors Create file system with specified number of disk sectors. -V verbose This controls the amount of information written to stdout: 0 No output. 1 Overall size, ilist size, endian and filename length. 2 A progress bar. 3 4 More verbose message.
