Close broken lv ?

$

Hello,

Due to disk failure I lost certain lv.
Before running reducevg I'm trying to remove lv by using rmlv:
Code:

0516-1008 rmlv: Logical volume xxx must be closed.  If the logical volume
        contains a filesystem, the umount command will close the LV device.

lv is still open:
Code:

# lslv xxx
LOGICAL VOLUME:    xxx              VOLUME GROUP:  rootvg
VG STATE:          active/complete        LV STATE:      opened/syncd

I cannot use umount to close this lv since disk is gone and lv is no longer mounted.

How do I close this lv without using umount ?
I don't want to reboot if possible.

Thanks,
Vilius M.
