Let's be more specific here - LVM is more complex than just a regular partition.
Peter, with regards to VG - it's actually 'Volume Group', just to clarify...
It sounds like it's just the header that needs updating. Personally, I would
use `rsync` to backup your data, rather than dd.
This way,
peter either use dd to block copy your ssd to a new disk or
use gparted on a live rescue disk to do the same.
it will also allow you to move /resize your partitions
once copied you should be safe to make a change to the original.
