    lslv does show you the stripe width and stripe size AS LONG AS the
    LV is striped. In your case, since you don't see the stripe width/size
    from lslv, your LV is not striped.

    You can also get the stripe width/size from /image.data and
    /tmp/vgdata/<VG>/<VG>.data. If an LV is not striped, STRIPE_WIDTH &
    STRIPE_SIZE will be = to "", like

    STRIPE_WIDTH=
    STRIPE_SIZE=

    For a striped LV, you'll get something like

    STRIPE_WIDTH= 2
    STRIPE_SIZE= 4K

    BTW, you stripe an LV, not a VG.
