NAME
       lvmdiskscan - scan for all devices visible to LVM2

SYNOPSIS
       lvmdiskscan [-d|--debug] [-h|-?|--help] [-l|--lvmpartition]
       [-v|--verbose]

DESCRIPTION
       lvmdiskscan scans all SCSI, (E)IDE disks, multiple devices and a bunch
       of other block devices in the system looking for LVM physical volumes.
       The size reported is the real device size.  Define a filter in
       lvm.conf(5) to restrict the scan to avoid a CD ROM, for example.

OPTIONS
       See lvm for common options.
