xen - Xenserver 5.6 SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_47 no such volume group, but it is there

I've looked everywhere (Google, here, a bunch of other sites), and while I have found people with similar problems, I couldn't find a single one with a solution to this.

Last night our xenserver 5.6 box corrupted the /var/xapi/state.db, and I couldn't fix the xml, no matter what I did.

After a good hour fiddling with the file, I figured it would be faster to just reinstall.

The server had one 2tb hard drive running Xen and its VMs, and since Xen's install said it would erase the hard drive it was installed on, I plugged a new harddrive and installed Xen on it, without selecting any hard drives for storage. I Figured I could make it happen after install, using the partition on the old harddrive with all my VMs on it.

After instalation finished and the system booted I did:

#fdisk -l
found the old partition at /dev/sda3 
#ll /dev/disk/by-id
found the partition at /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-3600188b04c02f100181ab3a48417e490-part3

At this point I did a 
# vgrename VG_XenStorage-405a2ece-d10e-d6c5-ede2-e1ad2c29c68d VG_XenStorage-U03Gt9-WtHi-8Nnu-QB2Q-c7BV-CO9A-cFpYWW
cause the VG name was different, but pdb-plug still gives me the same error.

So, now I'm kinda lost about what to do, I'm not used to Xen and most sites I've been finding are really unhelpful.

I hope someone can guide me in the right way to fix this. I cant lose those VMs (got backups, but from inside the guests, not the VMs themselves).
