I have some virtual machines in virtualbox 7 that I upgraded from Rocky 9.1 to 9.2  
In each VM there is a physical /boot partition and 3 partitions in LVM with a single Volume Group: the root partition /, the /var partition and the /swap partition.  
After the upgrade to 9.2, the /var partition was not recognized at startup and by entering rescue mode and disabling it from /etc/fstab I was able to boot the systems.  
At this point though if I run any command like pvscan, lvscan etc. this error comes up:  
Devices file sys\_wwid t10.ATA\_\_\_\_\_VBOX\_HARDDISK\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_VB6b8c839d-fff8f011\_ PVID LLuJgCfZjY13zX1deSgBwx0WleTapEbB last seen on /dev/sda2 not found.  
No matching physical volumes found"  
The strangest thing is that although no PV is recognized, the root / and /swap partitions are mounted correctly by /dev/mapper/rl-root and /dev/mapper/rl-swap.  
Any LVM-related command I run always shows the above error and I can’t fix the situation.  
Has this happened to anyone else?

A thousand thanks.  
Stupid me for not doing a good search before upgrading and posting.  
Excuse me
