As others have said, pvscan is not going to modify anything. The command, when issued without any parameters, will give you exactly what you say you want: # pvscan PV /dev/dasda2 VG vg01 lvm2 [6.82 GB / 3.32 GB free] Total: 1 [6.82 GB] / in use: 1 [6.82 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ] Mark Post ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
