In general it is good for yourself if you search a bit further before asking questions. You will never become self-sufficient without trying, making mistakes, and learning why it was a mistake.

To mirror a volume group you need additional storage, ideally, equal number of disks of the same size - and the command mirrorvg.

Read the documentation on mirrorvg, if you have questions, come back. But share what you have learned as well. Give and take!

Hope this helps!
