Here's what I get with lvm2 2.01.04-5 tools:
# vgdisplay lvmg
  --- Volume group ---
  VG Name               lvmg
  System ID             leonid1067528333
  Format                lvm1
  VG Access             read/write
  VG Status             resizable
  MAX LV                256
  Cur LV                1
  Open LV               1
  Max PV                256
  Cur PV                2
  Act PV                2
  VG Size               114.44 GB
  PE Size               32.00 MB
  Total PE              3662
  Alloc PE / Size       3662 / 114.44 GB
  Free  PE / Size       0 / 0
  VG UUID               BSy91n-ruZ9-cPDQ-aD8u-hNVI-NhxK-kzr4Rq

On related note, is it possible to convert it into lvm2 without loosing 
data?

Thanks,
Igor
