hello

i'm looking for the best way to move an entire volume group from the
set of disks it is now using to a new set of disks (another storage
box) using lvm. I can't use pvmove. Any suggestion?
thank you very much!

Why can't you use pvmove? (I'd suggest to add the new disks to the VG, then
pvmove, then, vgreduce the old disks away) You could create a new VG with same
LV sized and do an offline(!) dd from source to destination LV.
