In this case +if you are backing up more than one volume group the filename is +treated as a template, and %s gets replaced by the volume group name. +.sp +NB. This DOESN'T backup user/system data in logical +volume(s)! Backup /etc/lvm regularly too. +.SH OPTIONS +See \fBlvm\fP for common options. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR lvm (8), +.BR vgcfgrestore (8) |
