-lvm2-activation-generator - generator for systemd units to activate LVM volumes on boot
-.
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.
-.B #SYSTEMD_GENERATOR_DIR#/lvm2-activation-generator
-.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.
-The lvm2-activation-generator is called by \fBsystemd\fP(1) on boot to
-generate systemd units at runtime to activate LVM Logical Volumes (LVs)
-when global/event_activation=0 is set in \fBlvm.conf\fP(5). These units use
-\fBvgchange -aay\fP to activate LVs.
-.P
-If event_activation=1, the lvm2-activation-generator exits immediately without
-generating any systemd units, and LVM fully relies on event-based
-activation to activate LVs. In this case, event-generated
-.B pvscan --cache -aay
-commands activate LVs.
-.P
-These systemd units are generated by lvm2-activation-generator:
-.P
-.I lvm2-activation-early.service
-is run before systemd's special \fBcryptsetup.target\fP to activate
-LVs that are not layered on top of encrypted devices.
-.P
-.I lvm2-activation.service
-is run after systemd's special \fBcryptsetup.target\fP to activate
-LVs that are layered on top of encrypted devices.
-.P
-.I lvm2-activation-net.service
-is run after systemd's special \fBremote-fs-pre.target\fP to activate
-LVs that are layered on attached remote devices.
-.P
-Note that all the underlying LVM devices (Physical Volumes) need to be
-present when the service is run. If the there are any devices that appear
-to the system later, LVs using these devices need to be activated directly
-by \fBlvchange\fP(8) or \fBvgchange\fP(8).
-.P
-The lvm2-activation-generator implements the \fBGenerators Specification\fP
-as referenced in \fBsystemd\fP(1).
