I want to set up an LVM that I can move from guest to guest. I have a
3390-09 volume that I want to use for this.
Why? It makes it easy to re-do file systems, at least for now.

Is there a safe way to move LVM filesystems from one zLinux guest to
another? I want to move them from a SLES 8.2 instance to a SLES 9
instance without losing the data?
Thank you.

Use tar. Create a tarball (tar -z -cf) , transport the tarball file
to the new system and un-tar it (tar -z -xpf) . Read the man pages on
tar carefully.
