Boot image for VIO

i've installed vios 2.2 on blade PS700
there are 2 disk, hdisk0 dan hdisk1 and i want to mirror it
but blv (boot logic volume) does not appear on hdisk1 (bootlist -mode normal -ls) only on hdisk0
i've already did command (bootlist -mode normal hdisk0 hdisk1"

does anyone know the command to create boot image just like bosboot on AIX
