Thanks!

I did a pvcreate --restorefile thefile --uuid theuuid mygroup and then
vgcfgrestore thefile.

Now the logical volumes appear in /dev/mygroup/, but when I try to
mount them I get the error "mount: special device /mount/mygroup/myvol
does not exist"

I googled for an answer but I couldn't find anything relevant.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
