I have done this many times. Unmount any file systems that are part of the volume group Deactive the volume group with vgchange ?a n <volume group> Detach DASD from guest
On the other guest, attach the DASD Issue a vgscan to make sure it finds the volume group Activate the volume group with vgchange ?a y <volume group> Remount whatever file systems you need This should work fine as long as the volume groups are unique between the guests. I hope this helps.

In GUEST1, I'd like to unmount the filesystem, de-activate the LVM and CP detach mdisks. And in GUEST2, I'd like to CP LINK the mdisks, activate the LVM, and mount the filesystem. Is this possible?
