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.
