[linux-lvm] setting VG UUID

Hi!

After figuring out that my all my PVs were lacking UUIDs, I used this
hack from Heinz to correct the situation:

http://lists.sistina.com/pipermail/linux-lvm/2002-January/010521.html

(Alasdair also kindly provided a patch to handle the situation in LVM2.)

Now my VG itself is still lacking a UUID and this causes problems such
as vgcfgrestore refusing to continue.  Is there any way I can update
my VG UUID?

I also have this problem where my PV's are using different system ids:

VG:        localhost.localdomain1073237462
/dev/hda6: localhost.localdomain1073237462 (same)
/dev/hda7: localhost.localdomain1073237466
/dev/hda8: localhost.localdomain1073237470
/dev/hda9: localhost.localdomain1073237474

Is there a way of fixing this?

Thanks,
Navin.
