As far as I know there isn't any automatic load balancing you can do. Normally you will present hdisk from each VIO like you've done and then you would mirror it.
So if LPAR1 has hdisk0 from VIO1, and hdisk1 from VIO2, then when you mirror hdisk0 to hdisk1 you would be covered if you have to reboot VIO1 or VIO2.
