This would be great if this is the case. If I just try to revive the
old drive it gives me the UUID of the old primary drive. If I can
change the UUID of the old primary drive back to its original UUID could
it be possible it will recognize it and offer them up?
If the vgdescriptor is overwritten does it remove any references to the
original file system?
