Re: Unable to see volume groups and lvol's on system
If you know the physical volume paths you can use them with the vgimport command
#vgimport -v /dev/vg01
If you have successfully created the lvmtab file with vgscan , then you can obtain the pvpaths from the lvmtab file.
Once vgimport succeeeds, activate the vg with
#vgchange -a y vg01
Hope this helps..

I could see that you have ran vgimport on an LV..instead that should be run on a disk
#vgimport -v /dev/vg01

Re: Unable to see volume groups and lvol's on system
/dev/vg01
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
/dev/vg02
/dev/dsk/c4t1d0
Also the vg conf files are those of june and not recent..
-r-------- 1 root sys 61440 Jun 14 14:44 vg01.conf
-r-------- 1 root sys 61440 Jun 14 14:40 vg01.conf.old
-r-------- 1 root sys 61440 Jun 14 14:54 vg02.conf
-r-------- 1 root sys 61440 Jun 14 14:52 vg02.conf.old
So if activating VG succeeds, then then should be available.
If not,then there is an other option that you can try..since the vg01/vg02 conf files are existing you can restore the VG.
#vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg01 /dev/dsk/c4t0d0
#vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg02 /dev/dsk/c4t1d0
