--- Begin Message ---Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.66-2 Severity: normal This is what the pvdisplay manpage says: -c, --colon Generate colon separated output for easier parsing in scripts or programs. N.B. pvs (8) provides considerably more control over the output. The values are: * physical volume device name * volume group name * physical volume size in kilobytes And here's the output: 15:33:57 rrs@champaran:~ $ sudo pvdisplay -c /dev/sda3:LocalDisk:242244135:-1:8:8:-1:4096:29570:293:29277:vbVe9b-nJBv-ADtN-e578-mJAF-mbhZ-48jk4E So this would mean: ( (242244135/1024) / 1024) GiB = 231 Which is not really the case. pvs reports it correctly: 15:40:24 rrs@champaran:~ $ sudo pvs --all --units g PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/dm-1 -- 0g 0g /dev/dm-2 -- 0g 0g /dev/root -- 0g 0g /dev/sda1 -- 0g 0g /dev/sda2 -- 0g 0g /dev/sda3 LocalDisk lvm2 a- 115.51g 1.14g -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.34-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lvm2 depends on: ii dmsetup 2:1.02.48-2 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libc6 2.11.1-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.48-2 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libreadline5 5.2-7 GNU readline and history libraries ii libudev0 157-1 libudev shared library ii lsb-base 3.2-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip lvm2 recommends no packages. lvm2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
