+Where disk image(s) contain duplicate PVs or VGs, this
+command is useful to get LVM to ignore the duplicates, otherwise
+LVM can get confused.  Note also there are two types
+of duplication possible: either cloned PVs/VGs which have
+identical UUIDs; or VGs that are not cloned but just happen
+to have the same name.  In normal operation you cannot
+create this situation, but you can do it outside LVM, eg.
+by cloning disk images or by bit twiddling inside the LVM
+metadata.
+
+This command also clears the LVM cache and performs a volume
