Ok, you have something of a messy situation to deal with here.
And just a couple of comments:
1. If you have any other diskgroups, condier using them instead.
2. If you only have 2 disk why use veritas? Encapsulated roots are a pain SVM is a whole lot simpler for boot disks.
I generally don't like to use vxdiskadm, so I'm not
sure what options you've got there.
The basics:
for each plex on the mirror:
then
remove mirror disk, and replace.
layout the new partitions on disk
for each other volume
repeat the procedure for rootdisk, no need to unencapsulate.
