Let's take an example where there are three physical volumes in the volume group named MyVG.

The pvdisplay command is used to display the physical volumes in a volume group.

[root@server1 ~]# pvdisplay
--- Physical volume ---
  PV Name               /dev/sda1
  VG Name               MyVG
  PV Size               500 GB / not usable 79.0 MB
  Allocatable           yes
  PE Size (KByte)       4096
  Total PE              4388
  Free PE               4375
  Allocated PE          13
  PV UUID               7016c299-b6b1-40ad-80f0-e4dd0b3def65
