You cannot "move LVs across VGs", at least not with LVM commands. My suggestion is: do a file-based backup, not a savevg. Then create the new scalable VG on the new system, create LVs (and of course FSes) as needed and restore to these LVs/FSes. This is a simple and straightforward approach.

I hope this helps.
