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.
  - -a, --all
- Export all inactive Volume Groups.
