Hi

This option (--autobackup)  is per command.

If you want to disable backups for all commands - you need to do it in 
lvm.conf   (  backup/backup=0 }

In general in most cases this option should be left in its 'default' enabled 
setting - unless you are doint too many changes too frequently and backup do 
consume too many resources...
