What are the Metadata Contents available in LVM?

The volume group metadata contains:
    ·         Information about how and when it was created
    ·         Information about the volume group:

The volume group information contains:
    ·         Name and unique id
    ·         A version number which is incremented whenever the metadata gets updated
    ·         Any properties: Read/Write? Resizeable?
    ·         Any administrative limit on the number of physical volumes and logical volumes it may contain
    ·         The extent size (in units of sectors which are defined as 512 bytes)

An unordered list of physical volumes making up the volume group, each with:
    ·         Its UUID, used to determine the block device containing it
    ·         Any properties, such as whether the physical volume is allocatable
    ·         The offset to the start of the first extent within the physical volume (in sectors)
    ·         The number of extents

 An unordered list of logical volumes. Each consisting of
        An ordered list of logical volume segments. For each segment the metadata includes a mapping applied to an ordered list of physical volume segments or logical volume segments.
