in trying to rectify a stale lv problem I ran rmlvcopy <lv> 1 <primary disk> leaving the original os disk without lv copies other than the stale lv.
Both disks seem operational, but, lsvg rootg shows 1 stale pv.
The end goal is to re-attach the lv's back to hdisk1, and then attempt a reboot off of hdisk1 to sync things up again.

vgsync
vgsync(1M)vgsync(1M)NAME
vgsync - synchronize stale logical volume mirrors in LVM volume groups
SYNOPSIS
vg_name ...
Remarks
This command requires the installation of the optional HP MirrorDisk/UX software, which is not included in the standard HP-UX operating
system.
If the volume group input arguments belong to a combination of volume groups version 1.0 and 2.0 or higher, the arguments may not be pro-
cessed in the order they are listed on the command line.
DESCRIPTION
The command synchronizes the physical extents of each mirrored logical volume in the volume group specified by vg_name .... Synchroniza-
tion occurs only on the physical extents that are stale mirrors of the original logical extent.
The synchronization process can be time consuming, depending on the hardware characteristics and the amount of data. Unless disabled, the
mirrors within a volume group are synchronized automatically when the volume group is activated by the command.
Arguments
recognizes the following argument:
vg_name The path name of a volume group.
