Type of Logical Volume lost after vgexport/gvimport process

Hi, I have the next doubt about of lost of characteristic of LV

in my original configuration

# lsvg -l ifxvg
ifxvg:
LV NAME TYPE LPs PPs PVs LV STATE MOUNT POINT
aw64m_01 jfs 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A
aw64m_02 jfs 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A
aw64m_03 jfs 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A

However, after of varyoff, vgexport ang vgimport of the ifxvg I have the next output

# lsvg -l ifxvg
LV NAME TYPE LPs PPs PVs LV STATE MOUNT POINT
aw64m_01 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A
aw64m_02 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A
aw64m_03 1 1 1 open/syncd N/A

The Volumes are raw devices of informix DB, the database run succesfully, however my doubt is for that reason the "type" disappear after of vgexport.
