The VGDA and LVCBs contain a Volume Group's complete description; the
ODM keeps a PARTIAL copy of this information such as: PVs, VGs, and LVs.

The ODM object classes for LVM are:

        CuDv
        CuDvDr
        CuAt
        CuDep

Remember, the information stored in the ODM is only PARTIAL information.

Chapter 17 of "General Programming Concepts: Writing and Debugging
Programs" contains information on the ODM. ODM objects are stored in
various locations. The main one is /etc/objrepos: each object class is
a different file. You need to be looking at CuAt, I
think: there are no specific classes for LVM information.
