+To replace PVs, \fBvgdisplay --partial --verbose\fP will show the
+UUIDs and sizes of any PVs that are no longer present. If a PV in the VG
+is lost and you wish to substitute another of the same size, use
+\fBpvcreate --restorefile filename --uuid uuid\fP (plus additional
+arguments as appropriate) to initialise it with the same UUID as the
+missing PV. Repeat for all other missing PVs in the VG. Then use
+\fBvgcfgrestore --file filename\fP to restore the VG's metadata.
