Logical volume to raw device

Hy
I have several logical volumes that are turned into raw devices used by Informix DB. I would like to add some more.

In /dev directory i see logical volumes as block files: lv_name1, lv_name2 ...

and

i see raw devices defined as character files:
rlv_name1, rlv_name2 ...

As i see, these LVs were turned into raw devices, somehow.

I found out the way to create new logical volumes using smit.
My question is, how to turn these logical volumes into raw devices?

Thanks!
