Rebooting won't help this. vgscan _reads_ the LVM metadata on the PVs
and tries to update the working copies of the metadata in /etc/lvmtab*.
No change to the metadata on the PVs happens during a vgscan run.
Does vgscan display any error?
What does vgck display?
vgck should check the ondisk metadata fine or we need to restore it
from archive copies in /etc/lvmconf/ (please save those!)
