Code:

if i had to guess: POWER5 tops, probably running AIX 5.3. ML?, which would make it about 10-15 years old) so i would be even more paranoid. Probably everything is out of support if my wild guess is true. I haven't seen a RAID on any AIX-system perhaps for 15 years now and a RAID made of such small disks is probably quite old too.

Yes, it's correct. It's power 5 and 5.3 ML. We work for customer who use the old technologies and that their legacy. We work on risk but no choice.

Actually execute it but not help. It seems not recognizing the new size

Code:

xxx@/#chvg -g SSAMvg
0516-1382 chvg: Volume group is not changed. None of the disks in the
        volume group have grown in size.
0516-732 chvg: Unable to change volume group SSAMvg.

Check the status it seems in good state
