Actually I was not asking this question in the context removing a disk.
I was asking if you loose connectivity to a disk(s) unexpectitly.

I have a question regarding the behavior of vgchange -a n on lvm2 when
there are disk failures. Specifically the following:
1. vgchange -a y vg00
2. disconnect the disks
3. vgchange -a n vg00
Are you doing this in the correct order? Shouldn't you _de_activate the
VG _before_ removing the disks? And besides, shouldn't you remove the
offending disks from the VG _before_ deactivating and then removing the
disks physically? Or at least something equivalent.
1. vgreduce vg00 <offending disks>
2. vgchange -a n vg00
3. disconnect the disks
4. vgchange -a y vg00
