Need to attach one slice with existing concatenated volume

Hi

I need to add new slice to existing concatenated volume. Please let me know the process to do the same

I have d0 concatenated volume which consist of c1t0d0s7 & c1t2d0s0

Code:
bash-3.00# df -h /export/home
Filesystem             size   used  avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/md/dsk/d0         2.7G   1.0G   1.7G    38%    /export/home
 
bash-3.00# metastat -p
d0 2 1 c1t0d0s7  1 c1t2d0s0



Now I need to add one more disk (c1t3d0s0) into existing d0 volume to increase the size of the d0 volume.

Please let me know how to do that.

Can We run above two commands in live production environment without taking down time of application, to add one more slice to increase the size of current volume d0 which is mounted on /app mount point

Yes, you can run it in production without unmounting the filesystem.
