Everything else is just a consequence of that. It seems that your system has lost touch with the hard disk(s) once attached to it. Reasons could be (the list is not exhaustive):
- disk(s) have been removed physically
- adapter(s) to which the disk(s) is/are attached is/are removed/broken
- if disks are LUNs the zoning has been changed
and many reasons more. Can you tell us how your system was built (hardware-wise) so that we can narrow the possible reasons down?

vgreduce
VGREDUCE(8) System Manager's Manual VGREDUCE(8)NAME
vgreduce - reduce a volume group
SYNOPSIS
vgreduce [-a|--all] [-A|--autobackup y|n] [-d|--debug] [-h|-?|--help] [--removemissing] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] VolumeGroupName [Physi-
calVolumePath...]
DESCRIPTION
vgreduce allows you to remove one or more unused physical volumes from a volume group.
OPTIONS
See lvm for common options.
-a, --all
Removes all empty physical volumes if none are given on command line.
--removemissing
Removes all missing physical volumes from the volume group, if there are no logical volumes allocated on those. This resumes normal
operation of the volume group (new logical volumes may again be created, changed and so on).
If this is not possible (there are logical volumes referencing the missing physical volumes) and you cannot or do not want to remove
them manually, you can run this option with --force to have vgreduce remove any partial LVs.
Any logical volumes and dependent snapshots that were partly on the missing disks get removed completely. This includes those parts
that lie on disks that are still present.
If your logical volumes spanned several disks including the ones that are lost, you might want to try to salvage data first by acti-
vating your logical volumes with --partial as described in lvm (8).
