vgrename - rename a volume group Synopsis
vgrename [-A|--autobackup {y|n}] [-d|--debug] [-h|-?|--help]
[-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] OldVolumeGroup{Path|Name|UUID}
NewVolumeGroup{Path|Name} Description
vgrename renames an existing (see vgcreate(8)) volume group from
OldVolumeGroup{Name|Path|UUID} to NewVolumeGroup{Name|Path}. All the
Volume Groups visible to a system need to have different names.
Otherwise many LVM2 commands will refuse to run or give warning
messages.
This situation could arise when disks are moved between machines. If a
disk is connected and it contains a Volume Group with the same name as
the Volume Group containing your root filesystem the machine might not
even boot correctly. However, the two Volume Groups should have
different UUIDs (unless the disk was cloned) so you can rename one of
the conflicting Volume Groups with vgrename.
Options
See lvm(8) for common options. Examples
Renames existing volume group vg02 to my_volume_group: vgrename
/dev/vg02 /dev/my_volume_group
or
vgrename
vg02 my_volume_group
Changes the name of the Volume Group with UUID
Zvlifi-Ep3t-e0Ng-U42h-o0ye-KHu1-nl7Ns4 to VolGroup00_tmp:
vgrename Zvlifi-Ep3t-e0Ng-U42h-o0ye-KHu1-nl7Ns4
VolGroup00_tmp

não é um VG, portanto, você não pode renomeá-lo. Este é um PV no qual um VG provavelmente se baseia.
