It has to be added to do a pvmove. If you want to create a new volume group, you may as well create it and use rsync to copy the contents of the old LVs over. If the only reason for the change is to have a different name, use vgrename either before or after the move. You can't run vgrename on an in-use VG, so boot into single user mode or from a live CD. -- Neil Bothwick What was the greatest thing BEFORE sliced bread?
