+Indicates that lvchange(8) is being invoked from early system initialisation
+scripts (e.g. rc.sysinit or an initrd), before writeable filesystems are
+available. As such, some functionality needs to be disabled and this option
+acts as a shortcut which selects an appropriate set of options. Currently

+\fB--poll n\fP and setting \fBLVM_SUPPRESS_LOCKING_FAILURE_MESSAGES\fP

Disable udev synchronisation. The
process will not wait for notification from udev.
