Did your try the following?
Extract from man vgreduce:
Quote:
-f vg_name force reduction of missing physical volume(s) in a
given volume group. vgreduce obtains the name of
each physical volume (PV) belonging to the volume
group. It then reads the kernel PV structures to
work out which PVs are missing. PVs which are
missing will be candidates for removal. If all
the physical extents on the missing PV are free
then it will be removed from the volume group.
Otherwise vgreduce will report the physical to
logical extent mapping. For missing PVs which
have extents in use, you must free up all the
extents by using lvreduce or lvremove and re-run
vgreduce with the -f option. This option is most
commonly used when the vgdisplay(1M) command shows
"Cur PV" higher than "Act PV" and all of the PVs
belonging to the volume group are attached. This
option only works on PVs and not on links. See
the -l option for details on handling missing
links.
