NAME
       vgmknodes - recreate volume group directory and logical volume special files

SYNOPSIS
       vgmknodes [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [--refresh] [-v|--verbose] [[VolumeGroupName | LogicalVolumePath]...]

DESCRIPTION
       Checks the LVM2 special files in /dev that are needed for active logical volumes and creates any missing ones and removes
       unused ones.

OPTIONS
       --refresh
              If any logical volume in the volume group is active, reload its metadata.  This is not necessary in normal  opera-
              tion,  but  may  be  useful if something has gone wrong or if you're doing clustering manually without a clustered
              lock manager.

       See lvm for common options.
