If the device you're trying to resize is multipathed, that isn't supported 
until SLES11.  If it is not multipathed, you should be able to:
- partprobe
- fdisk
-- delete the partition table
-- create a new partition table covering the whole disk
- pvscan (May not be needed.)
- pvresize

You may need to use the --setphysicalvolumesize parameter on the pvresize 
command.  I didn't test any of this since I don't have administrative access to 
a storage array to play these kinds of games.

Just as a side note, I really don't understand why people want to resize LUNs 
used in LVM instead of just adding another LUN.  Way too much hassle and risk 
for my taste.
