NAME

       vgmknodes - recreate volume group directory and logical volume special files

SYNOPSIS

       vgmknodes [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [--refresh] [-v|--verbose] [[VolumeGroupName|LogicalVolumePath]...]

DESCRIPTION

       Checks  the LVM2 special files in /dev that are needed for active logical volumes and creates any missing
       ones and removes unused ones.

OPTIONS

       See lvm(8) for common options.

       --refresh
              If any logical volume in the volume group is active, reload its metadata.  This is  not  necessary
              in  normal  operation, but may be useful if something has gone wrong or if you're doing clustering
              manually without a clustered lock manager.
