+Applicable only when \fBlvmetad\fP(8) is in use (see also \fBlvm.conf\fP(5),
+global/use_lvmetad). This command issues a rescan of physical volume labels and
+metadata areas of all PVs that the logical volume uses. In particular, this can
+be used when a RAID logical volume becomes degraded, to update information
+about physical volume availability. This is only necessary if the logical
