there are only like 2-3 ways to get it not activated on boot..

This is a misconfig of some sort, not random breakage (unless it is metad).

cat /proc/cmdline
disable/mask lvm2-lvmetad if your fedora version has it, it causes weird
lvm issues (ie random fail to find/enable vgs).

Did "vgchange -ay" activate it and/or did you have to add the vgname on the
line?

There are some volume_list options in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file that people
sometimes use that will use odd behavior.

I won't touch btrfs/zfs, I have had too many first person horror stories in
the last 3 years to trust either with my data.
