It's never that trivial in my experience.  Regardless of if the VGs
and LVs are named identically or not.  And that's a big part of the
frustration.  The biggest hurdle I've encountered has been
incompatible LVM versions between what I'm using to mount with and
what I'm mounting.  Granted, I've not had to do that sort of thing in
a couple of years, so maybe it's better now, but prior to 2012 it was
a nightmare.
