I stopped the source LDOM and took a snapshot only then. Copied the file across and the problem described persisted. I had become convinced the issue was on the destination side, but the idea brought me closer to the idea of releasing the old file in some way.
My problem is now solved. I had to unbind the ldom and then bind again. As soon as this was done, it forgot about the old system and flipped to the updated file. I guess the VDS was keeping hold of the old disk0. I suppose it's like other bits of Solaris when something is keeping the inode.
Thanks very much for the ideas - appreciated.
The peak I/O was about 45M per 5 seconds as seen by
zpool iostat bigpool 5 720
This was normal running PLUS the scp activity at the same time.

Generally, this is what we do:-
On primary, export 2 LUNs (add-vdsdev).
On primary, assign these disks to the ldom in question (add-vdisk).
On ldom, created mirrored zpool from these two disks.
On one server (which is older) we have:-
