Veritas mirroring question

Hi all, I'm fairly new to Veritas on Linux machines and have a disk group with 64 disks that we are migrating to 64 new disks. This means I'll be mirroring the old to the new. So my question is this - is there a way to mirror a specific volume to a range of disks as opposed to listing each disk by name?

example: vxassist -g dg1 mirror vol1 disk_dg65 - disk_dg128 ???

I'm hoping there is so I don't have to type or copy 64 disk names. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

NAME

       fribidi_set_mirroring - set mirroring on or off

SYNOPSIS

       #include <fribidi.h>

       fribidi_boolean fribidi_set_mirroring(fribidi_boolean state);

PARAMETERS

       fribidi_boolean state
	      New state to set.

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is used to turn character mirroring on or off.  Character mirroring is the act of replacing a mirrorable glyph (character),
       eg. Left paranthesis, with the matching glyph, eg. Right paranthesis, in a right-to-left resolved context.  If your rendering  engine  does
       mirroring itself, you may want to turn it off here.

       This flag is on by default.  This function is deprecated and only used with other deprecated functions.

RETURNS

       The new mirroring status.
