You are not supposed to loose these files .... aie ;-(
As I understand, there is a copy of this info. on every phys. volume.
But it seems no utility exist for restoring this info. into
/etc/lvmconf/...

What does pvscan give you ?

And I did not understand if you also want to recover the
data in the volume group lvmGroup ? (it would be simpler if not ...)
