vgcfgbackup. Vgexport will only created the map file that can be used by vgimport.

Only vgcfgbackup will create the conf file that can be used by vgcfgrestore to restore the LVM conf.

Neither, really. The vgcfgbackup command saves the LVM configuration info about a particular VG to a file, from whence it can be vgcfgrestore'd. The vgexport command makes a VG portable so it can be moved to another system with vgimport.

What do you mean by "backup of lvm"?
