hi thanks for ur reply...i did that ...it works fine.initially it says that the disk was under use by zpool. and it asked me to destroy it and change the signature in the hard disk.
I did "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 oseek=10 bs=512 count=1" it was failed. Then i did "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vx/dmp/disk_1 oseek=16 bs=512 count=1". Now it works fine. I dont know why the command failed and second command succeeded. Can someone explain?

NAME
prtvtoc - report information about a disk geometry and partitioning SYNOPSIS
prtvtoc [-fhs] [-t vfstab] [-m mnttab] device DESCRIPTION
The prtvtoc command allows the contents of the label to be viewed. The command can be used only by the super-user. The device name can be the file name of a raw device in the form of /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?s2 or can be the file name of a block device in the form of /dev/dsk/c?t?d?s2. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -f Report on the disk free space, including the starting block address of the free space, number of blocks, and unused parti- tions. -h Omit the headers from the normal output. -m mnttab Use mnttab as the list of mounted filesystems, in place of /etc/mnttab. -s Omit all headers but the column header from the normal output. -t vfstab Use vfstab as the list of filesystem defaults, in place of /etc/vfstab.
