inoperative
Logical volume is operative.
inoperative/over-commit
Logical volume is inoperative and marked as over-commit.
LV Size (Megabytes) Size of the logical volume.
Current LE Number of logical extents in the logical volume.
Allocated PE Number of physical extents used by the logical volume.
Pre-allocated LE Number of pre-allocated logical extents in the logical volume.
Current pre-allocated LE
Number of logical extents that are pre-allocated, currently in the logi-
cal volume.
Unshared LE Number of logical extents that are allocated (unshared) in the logical
volume.
Current pre-allocated PE
Number of pre-allocated physical extents used by the logical volume.

--- Physical volumes ---
Information about physical volumes belonging to vg_name :
PV Name The block device path name of a physical volume in the group. When
an alternate link to a physical volume has been added, Alternate
Link is displayed next to the device path name. (See vgextend(1M)
for definition.)
PV Status State of the physical volume: (NOTE : spare physical volumes are
only relevant if you have installed HP MirrorDisk/UX software):
available
The physical volume is available and is not a spare physical
volume.
available/data spared
The physical volume is available. However, its data still resides
on an active spare.
available/active spare
The physical volume is available and is an active spare physical
volume. (An active spare is a spare that has taken over for a
failed physical volume.)
available/standby spare
The physical volume is a spare "standing by" in case of a failure
on any other physical volume in this volume group. It can only
be used to capture data from a failed physical volume.
unavailable
The physical volume is unavailable and is not a spare physical
volume.
unavailable/data spared
The physical volume is unavailable. However, it’s data now
resides on an active spare, and its data is available if the active
spare is available.
unavailable/active spare
The physical volume is unavailable and it’s an active spare.
Thus, the data on this physical volume is unavailable.
unavailable/standby spare
The physical volume is a spare "standing by" that is not
