-.SH DESCRIPTION
-vgrename renames an existing (see
-.BR vgcreate (8))
-volume group from
-.IR OldVolumeGroup { Name | Path | UUID }
-to
-.IR 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
-\fBvgrename\fP.
-.SH OPTIONS
-See \fBlvm\fP(8) for common options.
-.SH Examples
-Renames existing volume group vg02 to my_volume_group:
-.sp
-.B vgrename /dev/vg02 /dev/my_volume_group
-
-or
-.sp
-.B vgrename vg02 my_volume_group
-
-Changes the name of the Volume Group with UUID
-.br
-Zvlifi-Ep3t-e0Ng-U42h-o0ye-KHu1-nl7Ns4 to VolGroup00_tmp:
