You can use the
--segments
argument of the
pvs
command to display information about each
physical volume segment. A segment is a group of extents. A segment view can be useful if you
want to see whether your logical volume is fragmented.
The
pvs --segments
command displays the following fields by default:
pv_name
,
vg_name
,
pv_fmt
,
pv_attr
,
pv_size
,
pv_free
,
pvseg_start
,
pvseg_size
. The display is sorted by
pv_name
and
pvseg_size
within the physical volume.

You can use the
pvs -a
command to see devices detected by LVM that have not been
initialized as LVM physical volumes.
