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] [[VolumeGroup-
       Name|LogicalVolumePath]...]

DESCRIPTION
       Checks the LVM2 special files in /dev that are needed for active	 logi-
       cal 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.
