-- Physical volumes --
PV Name /dev/disk/disk47
VG Name /dev/vg00
PV Status available
Allocatable yes
VGDA 2
Cur LV 9
PE Size (Mbytes) 4
Total PE 1023
Free PE 494
Allocated PE 529
Stale PE 0
IO Timeout (Seconds) default
Autoswitch On
Proactive Polling On
-- Distribution of physical volume --
LV Name LE of LV PE for LV
/dev/vg00/lvol1 25 25
/dev/vg00/lvol2 25 25
/dev/vg00/lvol3 50 50
--- Physical extents ---
PE Status LV LE
0000 current /dev/vg00/lvol1 0000
0001 current /dev/vg00/lvol1 0001
0002 current /dev/vg00/lvol1 0002
...
1021 free 0000
1022 free 0000
If the physical volume is functioning properly, Stale PE is 0.
