[linux-lvm] Conflicting vg names but can't rename one

[Mauricio Tavares]

	I took a drive from an ailing machine to suck the data out of it. This 
drive used to be part of a single drive LVM. Now, when I connect it to 
my machine, I realized I had named that vg the same name I had used in 
the vg I have in my desktop associated with just one drive,

vgdisplay export

   VG UUID               fjM9qy-aCEM-iluj-yTdQ-CwT5-Iijk-uOYXlB

We see that  UUID fjM9qy-aCEM-iluj-yTdQ-CwT5-Iijk-uOYXlB is the drive/vg 
in use while UUID SB3NfW-swQM-5rdw-xf5e-z6At-r5DM-dUwG7D is the extra 
drive I just attached to my machine. So I thought on using vgrename to 
change the name of the extra drive's vg so I can mount it:

vgrename SB3NfW-swQM-5rdw-xf5e-z6At-r5DM-dUwG7D export1

   Volume group "export" still has active LVs

What am I missing here? I thought if I told it to rename the vg with a 
given uuid I would be golden. As you can see, that is not the case.
