💖 LVMSAR(8) — bestie, we need to talk 💖

okay so this is the manual page for lvmsar, from the System Manager's Manual section of the LVM tools. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, because this one is short and a little sad.

✨ NAME ✨

lvmsar — the LVM system activity reporter 🎀

like, a reporter. for system activity. LVM's lil gossip correspondent. that's the vibe. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lvmsar

no flags. no arguments. no drama. she just runs. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay bestie, deep breath 😭

lvmsar is not supported under LVM2. not deprecated, not "use with caution" — straight up unsupported. she's giving retired icon. she ate once, and now she rests. 💀

but!! the good news is the plot twist: the device-mapper statistics facility provides similar performance metrics, and you get to it through the dmstats(8) command. so the function you wanted is still out there, living her best life, just under a different name. 🫶

lowkey important: if you came here hoping to pull LVM performance stats, lvmsar is a dead end — go straight to dmstats(8) instead. no cap. 🙈

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

  • dmstats(8) — the one who actually does the thing now 💖
  • lvm(8) — the mothership, the main character 🌈

that's it. that's the whole page. short and iconic, honestly. ⭐

kisses, and go read dmstats(8) fr fr 💜
