vgexport − make volume groups unknown to the system
vgexport [−a|−−all] [−d|−−debug] [−h|−?|−−help] [−v|−−verbose] VolumeGroupName [VolumeGroupName...]
vgexport allows you to make the inactive VolumeGroupName(s) unknown to the system. You can then move all the Physical Volumes in that Volume Group to a different system for later vgimport(8). Most LVM2 tools ignore exported Volume Groups.
See lvm
for common options.
