The reality is this cmd is just missing a vgname to act on, however the implication to the user is that the flag/syntax is wrong.

[root@virt-497 ~]# vgimportdevices --foreign
No command with matching syntax recognised. Run 'vgimportdevices --help' for more information.

[root@virt-497 ~]# vgimportdevices --foreign devfile_VG
Added 6 devices to devices file.
