    Thanks to all who responded. Here's what I did per

    Tom Myers' guidance:

    Umount the volumes in the volume group.

    Umount /dev/vg02/lvolx

    Deactivate the volume group

    # /usr/sbin/vgchange -a n vg02

    Wrote the LVM information to the new drive using vgcfgrestore:

    # /usr/sbin/vgcfgrestore -n vg02 /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0 (here's the importance of
    using vgcfgbackup)

    Re-activated the volume group:

    # /usr/sbin/vgchange -a y vg02

    Subject: [HPADM] replacing bad disk in physical volume

    We have a D390 running 10.20 that has a volume group comprised of PV1 and
    PV2. The volume group vg02 using PV2 and is striped and
    mirrored. c0t3d0 is part of PV2 and died, but the volume group is
    still working. What is the correct procedure for removing the bad disk from
    physical volume, replacing it with a new disk, and re- establishing the
    extents. Thanks in advance. Will summarize.
