Command Example

nlvm list linux volumes

Print a list of Linux POSIX volumes and the paths where they are mounted.

Response Parameters

You can issue the commands with the --terse NLVM option to output the same information in a format that is more easily parsed.

Standard Output

The command returns the following standard information about the Linux volumes on the server:

Label

Description

Name

Volume name. The format of the name depends on the type of volume and whether it is NCP-enabled.

Group

LVM group name or NA (not applicable) for non-LVM volumes

Mounted

Yes or No; whether the volume is mounted for user access

Size

Size of the volume in KB, MB, GB, or TB

Shared

Yes or No; whether volume’s device is marked as Shareable for Clustering

Type

Type of file system (such as btrfs, ext2, ext3, reiserfs, or xfs)

LVM

Yes or No; whether the volume is an LVM volume

NCP

Yes or No; whether the volume is NCP-enabled

Mountpoint

Full Linux path where the volume is mounted

More Output

The command returns the following additional information about the Linux volumes on the server:

Label

Description

Path

Path of the device or partition. For LVM, this is typically /dev/<volume_group_name>/<logical_volume_name>. If it is not LVM, this is the partition path.

All Output

If the all option is used, the command returns the same information about each Linux volume as is displayed for the nlvm list volume <volume_name> command.
