       lvrename — rename a logical volume

SYNOPSIS

       lvrename  [-A|--autobackup  {y|n}]  [--commandprofile  ProfileName]  [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [-t|--test]
       [-v|--verbose]      [--version]      [-f|--force]       [--noudevsync]       {OldLogicalVolume{Name|Path}
       NewLogicalVolume{Name|Path} | VolumeGroupName OldLogicalVolumeName NewLogicalVolumeName}

DESCRIPTION

       lvrename     renames     an    existing    logical    volume    from    OldLogicalVolume{Name|Path}    to
       NewLogicalVolume{Name|Path}.

OPTIONS

       See lvm(8) for common options.

       --noudevsync
              Disable udev synchronisation. The process will not wait  for  notification  from  udev.   It  will
              continue irrespective of any possible udev processing in the background.  You should only use this
              if udev is not running or has rules that ignore the devices LVM2 creates.

EXAMPLE

       To rename lvold in volume group vg02 to lvnew:

       lvrename /dev/vg02/lvold vg02/lvnew

       An alternate syntax to rename this logical volume is:

       lvrename vg02 lvold lvnew
