DESCRIPTION
       pvs produces formatted output about physical volumes.

OPTIONS
       See lvm for common options.

       --aligned
	      Use with --separator to align the output columns.

       --nameprefixes
	      Add  an  "LVM2_" prefix plus the field name to the output.  Useful with --noheadings to produce a list of field=value pairs that can
	      be used to set environment variables (for example, in udev (7) rules).

       --noheadings
	      Suppress the headings line that is normally the first line of output.  Useful if grepping the output.

       --nosuffix
	      Suppress the suffix on output sizes.  Use with --units (except h and H) if processing the output.

       -o, --options
	      Comma-separated ordered list of columns.	Precede the list with '+' to append to the default selection  of  columns.   Column  names
	      are:  pv_fmt,  pv_uuid, pv_size, dev_size, pv_free, pv_used, pv_name, pv_attr, pv_pe_count, pv_pe_alloc_count, pv_tags, pvseg_start,
	      pvseg_size, pe_start, pv_mda_count, pv_mda_free, and pv_mda_size.  With --segments, any "pvseg_" prefixes  are  optional;  otherwise
	      any  "pv_"  prefixes  are  optional.   Columns  mentioned  in  vgs  (8)  can also be chosen. The pv_attr bits are: (a)llocatable and
	      e(x)ported.  Use -o help to view the full list of fields available.

       --segments
	      Produces one line of output for each contiguous allocation of space on each Physical Volume, showing  the  start	(pvseg_start)  and
	      length (pvseg_size) in units of physical extents.

       -O, --sort
	      Comma-separated ordered list of columns to sort by.  Replaces the default selection. Precede any column with - for a reverse sort on
	      that column.

       --rows Output columns as rows.

       --separator Separator
	      String to use to separate each column.  Useful if grepping the output.

       --unbuffered
	      Produce output immediately without sorting or aligning the columns properly.

       --units hsbkmgtHKMGT
	      All sizes are output in these units: (h)uman-readable, (s)ectors, (b)ytes, (k)ilobytes, (m)egabytes, (g)igabytes, (t)erabytes.  Cap-
	      italise to use multiples of 1000 (S.I.) instead of 1024.	Can also specify custom (u)nits e.g.  --units 3M

       --unquoted
	      When used with --nameprefixes, output values in the field=value pairs are not quoted.
