You cannot, if the disk in part of a volume group. In this case you have a few possibilities :
1) Migrate the physical partitions from the disk, remove disk from the volume group, run the chdev command , add disk back to volume group then migrate back the physical partitions ;
2) Vary off the volume group then run the chdev command ;
3) Run chdev with the -P option and reboot the server ;
