NAME

   vgmknodes  --- recreate volume group directory and logical volume special
   files

SYNOPSIS

   vgmknodes  [--commandprofile  ProfileName]   [-d|--debug]   [-h|--help]
   [--refresh]      [--reportformat      {basic|json}]      [-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.
