Ref: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstract...5432.html?Open

"To make a disk into a physical volume, the PVID is placed onto the
disk. The
PVID is an combination of the machine's serial number (from the
systems
EPROMs) and the date the PVID was generated."

So, it should be possible if the PVID was system generated.

What are the circumstances that require you to know this info ?
