This may help, someone may have more info...
I'm on FC5 now, and in /etc/lvm there is a sample conf file, and a
backup directory that has a file with the configuration for my Volume
Group in it. I know that a bunch of the UUIDs are written to the
drives, so perhaps it's as easy as copying the config over, and mounting
them?
Actually, now that I think about it, there's vgexport and vgimport, so
you might check out the man pages for that, I bet that will make it
simple. Remember, they're tied to the /dev/hda1, /dev/hdb1, etc... so
the export/import will probably take care of all that.

Hey All,
I am getting ready to upgrade to .20 and am considering blowing away my
debian install with a new one (possibly FC5) as it is getting old and is
full of non-needed cruft and screwed up dependencies. I can handle all
the myth stuff for backing up the db but I have XFS LVM with 2 250gb
drives as my myth storage and want to be able to remount those on the
new box. Not having done much with LVM other than create this vg, I was
looking for advice on how to about this without hosing all of music,
videos, recordings, etc.
Here is my lvdisplay output:
lvdisplay
--- Logical volume ---
LV Name /dev/vg/myth
VG Name vg
LV UUID rNm5uX-nAGl-Dcde-K0x1-0TqC-tyjh-tDraP2
LV Write Access read/write
LV Status available
# open 1
LV Size 469.36 GB
Current LE 30039
Segments 2
Allocation inherit
Read ahead sectors 0
Block device 253:0
Thanks,
Bill
