[linux-lvm] LVM PV UUID problem

Hi all,

  I'm storing LVM information in a postgres database, and wanted to use
the UUID from the PVs / VGs / LVs as the UUIDs in the database. I
noticed when I tried to do this that postgres complained that the UUID
was not valid. I checked with an online UUID validator
(https://www.freecodeformat.com/validate-uuid-guid.php) and it also
reported as invalid.

Example;

====
# pvdisplay | grep UUID
  PV UUID               jLkli2-dEXx-5Y8n-pYlw-nCcy-9dFL-3B6jU3
====

  Is this a known issue?

Thanks for any help/insight!
