DESCRIPTION

14       vgexport  allows you to make the inactive VolumeGroupName(s) unknown to
15       the system.  You can then move all the Physical Volumes in that  Volume
16       Group  to  a  different  system for later vgimport(8).  Most LVM2 tools
17       ignore exported Volume Groups.  vgexport clears the VG system  ID,  and
18       vgimport  sets  the VG system ID to match the host running vgimport (if
19       the host has a system ID).
