To mirror an existing root volume:

1. pvcreate -B /dev/rdsk/device (-B creates BDRA area)

2. vgextend /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/device

3. mkboot /dev/rdsk/device (put boot utilities into boot area)

4. mkboot -a "hpux boot arguements here" /dev/rdsk/device

5. lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/dsk/device

6. lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/swaplv /dev/dsk//device

7. repeat lvextend in sequence for all root logical volumes

8. lvlnboot -v ( to update the boot information with the new disk)
