april:/farhome/hendrik# pvdisplay -s
Device "/dev/md0" has a capacity of 230.61 GiB
april:/farhome/hendrik#
Indeed it does say approx 230GiB. This looks promising, except that the
man page for pvdisplay says
-s, --short
Only display the size of the given physical volumes.
so I'd expect it to report the size (673.62 GiB), instead of the free
space. Is this a bug or a feature?
