Hi.
It seems that the lvmdump manpage lists not everything which is acutally included.
At least the following was missing:
- /sys/block listing
- everything form /etc/lvm, which is not only config/cache but possibly also backups, etc.
The attached patch adds this info.
Please forward to upstream if possible :)
Hope I could help,
Chris.
